La Parra is a single-origin microlot coffee from Tarrazú, a mountainous region of Costa Rica with rich volcanic soil. The beans are sourced from a single, identified region, resulting in a pure and unadulterated flavor. A microlot is a small, exclusive batch of top-quality coffee from a specific plot, selected for its unique and superior flavor. Thanks to the microclimate, the Arabica beans develop their characteristic freshness and sweet complexity, precisely what TUKA values in its coffees.
