We have a soft spot for great Costa Rican coffee here at Black Creek. Our coffee tasting experience there in 2016 kick started this whole coffee roasting journey!
We are always on the lookout for extraordinary coffees, and this Tarrazu is no exception. This high grown caturra variety comes from a mountainous region in Costa Rica, known for producing some of the world's best coffees. The volcanic soil and the high altitude impart a very smooth texture and sweet brown sugar notes. We then blend it with some of our other Costa Rican single origins such as Finca El Mango, to produce a blend that is available all year round.
We roast this coffee to a medium level to bring out the sweetness and chocolate notes. It has very little acidity, and is one of the smoothest coffees we have ever tasted.
As with many washed Costa Rican coffees, this coffee tastes very good black. Try it first before adding any milk or sugar, you might be surprised!
This coffee works best as a pour over, or drip coffee.

We bought the whole beans and we grind them just before brewing. The result is a delicious smooth full bodied taste. Pura Vida Costa Rican blend is a masterpiece.
Wonderful blend - bright and smooth
I haven’t tried this blend, but bought it as a last min gift. Local delivery was quick and hassle free. Thanks so much! I wouldn’t hesitate to order again and try a few blends I haven’t tried yet.
Easy drinking with or without milk. I use an aeropress and this blend is delicious.
My new favourite together with Yellow Lab this is now my go-to coffee. It's a bit smoother than the Yellow Lab but packs great coffee flavour to make me happy. It's my afternoon coffee. The pick-me-up vs the wake-me-up.
