  Nice little tour and very friendly owners. It can be a little difficult to find since GPS signals are a little slow.

  We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and education on how coffee is grown, processed, roasted, and brewed properly here in Costa Rica. Gabriel was very friendly, and has a great heart for doing the right thing, in terms of the the environment, and offering up organic products. This was not a large commercial plantation. It was a small family owned farm with a need to diversify, and maintain his family farm. The experiments that they are doing with the coffee fruit is very interesting. While I do not recommend the wine, I do applaud the efforts to perfect it into something better.
  
  We had a wonderful time, and do recommend the visit.

  Fantastic coffee tour. Learn a lot more than expected. Very friendly family that owns and that does the tour. You even are given an option of a delicious Tico meal at the end.

  Although they really gloss over the less glorious parts of coffee growing (extremely low pay, indentured servitude of Nicaraguan, bad working conditions, etc.) this place is a very gringo friendly place to learn about the coffee process. Prepare to be open minded for a well thought out schpiel about why "organic" farming is stupid

  Amazing tour! Fun and thought-provoking, and in a beautiful location. Absolutely the highlight of our entire trip thus far. Can't recommend it enough. We opted to add on lunch after our tour, which was a great choice.

  Do it. Stay away from the monster tourist plantations and come have a beautiful experience with this family. The dude is super excited about his farm, his product, and ecology. Fascinating and honest discussion about his farm. Really cool!

  Really enjoyed the talk and tour. I learned quite a bit about organic coffee farming and coffee production. Will be trying out a few alternatives to brewing my own coffee now as a result.

  This is easily one of the best coffee tours in Costa Rica. Small, family-run, organic farm
