Have you ever wondered how coffee is made? As we take on the part of a coffee farmer, you’ll engage in the entire process, spanning from seed to cup.
Your adventure will lead you on a 30-minute trek along the Sendero Cafetero, where you will actively participate in a simulated coffee harvest. Feel the excitement of receiving a ticket from the picker's bank! With your gathered coffee beans, you'll then visit the 'grandparents' mill' and the ecological mill, witnessing the current techniques used to process the coffee.
To enhance this immersive experience, engage in lively dances with farm workers and partake in the unique 'coffee rite', where you'll learn the art of preparation and consumption of this beloved beverage.
