Costa Rica Dota Tarrazu Estate Coffee
Our Santa Maria de Dota Terrazu estate-grown coffee comes from the home of the elusive Quetzal, the beautifully plumed endangered species. True Tarrazu appellation coffee only comes from three cantons in the highest altitude of the region of Tarrazu, including Santa Maria, that are located in a Cloud Forest (montane) through which many endangered wildlife species migrate. Most of the land is under conservation.
Grown at the peak of the ridge, at 6000 feet or above, these beans are classified as SHB (Strictly Hard Bean), a term reserved for high-altitude, dense beans with dark color and super-rich flavor. This is primarily Arabica Red Catuai with a little Yellow Catuai from taller-growing trees. Characterized by a pure coffee aroma and brown-sugar taste. This new season crop is lovely!
8 oz bags, please choose whole bean or ground. We're sorry to have to mark these beans out of stock. We went to order our new batch and the price is up 33%. We will wait until the market stops going crazy before we will buy them again... otherwise we would have to raise our price on them about $2 a bag.

Great service good coffee
Service and communication were awesome. Coffee was very good. I was hoping for more of a chocolate flavor but still good.

Dota Terrazu coffee
After first tasting this brand in Costa Rica, I found Len's Coffee. I've used it for over three years, and will continue to keep it as my primary coffee.

Excellent Coffee
I first enjoyed drinking this coffee while bird watching near where the coffee is grown in Costa Rica, and bought a couple of pounds of it in a store to bring home. I'm glad I found Len's Coffee so I can continue to drink this delicious coffee.

Excellent coffee
This coffee has an enticing aroma while brewing, a full-bodied taste, and it doesn't irritate your stomach.

Ordered Tarrazu beans as I discovered the roast on my recent trip to Costa Rice. Len’s did not disappoint. Received fresh and on time. Will reorder regularly and frequently

This has been our office coffee for 5 years
We reviewed a number of coffees suggested by our employees and the Estate (medium roast) won the vote hands down. For 5 years nobody in our office has asked to change the coffee... and we currently have 36 employees. This is a winner!

The Araku Valley of India
India's coffee tradition goes back 400 years or more, when a variety called Kent was first established in the Southern Hills. Arabicas predominated until the blight of 1870, when growers needed to hybridize to resistant varieties. The resultant strains had genes from Liberica and other unique, resistant species.
