Gran finca cafetera para pasar unos días relajado y descansando. El sonido de los animales al acostarte es embriagador

This is a working coffee Plantation with an attached boutique hotel. You don't have stay here to visit and attend their inspiration tour. Cost of the tour is 104,500 COP is pricey but ran very professionally. The tour starts by the reception area where a tour guide will come and collect you. They will provide you with a bottle water and take you to the Plantation part of their facility. A very short walk to their tour building, while telling you about the history of their Plantation. Once in the building they will train you in how to coffee taste and discern between 3 classes of coffee. The coffee tasting portion really reveals how well you know and enjoy your coffee. They finish the coffee tasting portion of the tour with a small piece of wood from one of the tress cut in their property. They use it as an educational aid and to keep you in track with what they will be covering-@the end is a take home souvenir.
They will start making their way down winding thru the plants and covering the process from beginning to end and disrupting opening the four factors that helps Colombia being one of the top quality coffee-operative word is quality because while Brazil and Vietnam are the two biggest producers because of their mechanical harvest method versus the Colombian which still remains entirely manual. This allows the plantations to only pick the fruit is the right node and discriminate against rotten or not ripped fruit.
Tour lengths is about 3 to 4 hours depending on how many questions you have. Our guide, Camilo was awesome-he went thru the 2 year BARISTA program in Bogota and is a certified BARISTA - not the type you would find in Starbucks! He is well versed with not just the preparation but all the aspects related to coffee production and enjoyment.
The tour is highly recommended to be booked before dropping in as it is a bit far from the city and you risk the chance of them not having space to accommodate. In my case, although I pre-booked and they were expecting me, our group was very small 6 in total-not sure about numbers during a busier season. They do have two tours a day 9 AM and 2 PM.response / report this review -
