Fully traceable coffee from sustainably producing farmers

Pura Vida is our Costa-Rican classic and where it all started! Always reliable, always delicious.

This single-origin specialty coffee is 100% Arabica and grown in the highlands of Tarrazú, one of Costa Rica's most famous coffee regions. There, the bean develops its characteristic freshness and complexity. In this medium roast, you'll taste a sparkling citrus freshness, followed by the soft sweetness of sugarcane and a warm, nutty finish. The coffee is smooth and balanced, yet complex enough to reveal new nuances time and time again.

Direct Trade means we buy the coffee directly from the farmer and roast it ourselves using traditional methods. A simple formula that results in coffee that is personal, honest, and exceptionally flavorful.

Flavor profile: Citrus, sugar cane and walnut

De Roots van jouw Koffie

Boer

The Bonilla Martínez family

Meet the farming family of Sol Naciente plantation in the Dota Valley. Thirty years ago, the family transformed this former cattle-farming area into the current regenerative farm. With their own micro-mill, they manage the entire process, from soil science to the export-ready quality of specialty coffee.

€11.50 per kg direct aan de boer betaald

Eerlijke Betaling

125% above the average (ICAFE benchmark 2025: €5.11/kg) and 145% above an indicative living wage (Fairtrade reference: €4.70/kg).

TUKA decouples the farmer's income from speculation on the world market. This provides the farmer with the financial stability to no longer have to live from harvest to harvest.

Kaart

Regio & Terroir

Located at an altitude of 1,600 - 1,800 meters in the Talamanca Mountains. The coffee owes its character to the volcanic soil of the Talamanca mountain range. This mineral-rich soil forms the basis for its sparkling acidity and deep sweetness. The farmer experiments here by planting banana, mango, and lemon trees directly next to the coffee plants for natural shade.

Oerwoud

Natuurbehoud

Sol Naciente reuses 100% of their waste streams. The farm operates on a closed-loop system where all residual material from coffee processing is directly returned to the soil for optimal fertility.

FAQ

Pura Vida is a single-origin coffee from Tarrazú, a mountainous region in Costa Rica with rich volcanic soil. Single-origin means that all the coffee beans are sourced from this region, without any additives. Thanks to the local microclimate, the Arabica beans develop their characteristic freshness and sweet complexity, precisely what TUKA considers essential for its coffees.

What are the typical flavor notes in Pura Vida coffee?

This specialty coffee has a clear, balanced flavor profile with notes of citrus, sugarcane, and walnut. It has a full body and a mildly sweet finish, a refined coffee that starts fresh and finishes softly.

How does TUKA Coffee Roasters contribute to sustainable coffee production?
