In the small town of Santa Maria de Dota, at the centre of the coffee growers of Tarrazu that contribute to it, is the coffee processing mill and facilities belonging to Coope Dota. Established back in 1960, they currently represent around 900 small growers and hold the title as the first coffee processor in the world to be certified as carbon neutral, back in 2011
 
Semi-Washed 
Semi-washed coffee processing is also known as the 'wet-hulled' process. The outer skin is removed, similar to washed coffee, but the mucilage – inner-mesocarp – remains on the parchment and is sun-dried. Then the parchment is removed. The swollen white beans enter the second drying-phase.
