Sustainability & Traceability
Coope Tarrazu was formed in 1960 and has grown from just a couple of hundred members to around 5,000 today. 80 percent of members own less than 4 hectares, so having agronomists for the group available to offer expertise is just one of the benefits membership can bring.
In 2011 they formed their own R&D department to look at practical alternatives with by-products, sustainable agriculture, efficiency and energy. They have an app based solution for farmer members, and work with a number of universities to develop inputs for the future of sustainable agriculture.
La Pastora is the brand name of their distinctive profile of coffee, with high acidity, medium body and great aroma – and what we have come to think of as typical for a coffee from Tarrazu.
Flowering in April and May and harvesting between December and March, cherries are picked ripe and quickly pulped before being stored in a giant black fermentation tank for around 4 days. Once fermentation is complete, beans are taken to raised beds and dried under sunlight.
