::Wow this place was incredible. I wasn't expecting a whole lot from a coffee tour but this really reset my mind and expectations in every way. Starting off, the owner basically tells us we shouldn't be drinking coffee because it consumes a lot of water and has no nutritional value. I think he knows it's a safe bet that we won't listen. From there he educates us on taste (I now rethink everything I thought I liked) and then moves on to how they farm, making it as bio diverse and organic as possible. The amount of information he throws at us is overwhelming and his passion for their work and the planet really shows. I can't sum it all up here because I wouldn't want to; it's his job. I would however, highly recommend the tour and urge you to support this innovative and intelligent family.

::Gabriel and his wife were amazing!! We learned so much about coffee and the impact it has on the environment. The coffee tasting with cookies was a nice treat. The coffee was so good, we came back to buy more. Highly recommended!

::Had great tour here. Owner is very environmentally cautious, as we all should be, but not a whacko like so many of the loud voices. Looking and finding ways to use the 80% of the coffee bean that goes to waste. Wine, fragrances, marinade, and more to come.

::As with a lot of places during the pandemic, a reservation is required (call or through their site). HOWEVER, I inquired for a reservation ~22:00 on a Saturday night and by the next morning we were confirmed for a Sunday tour. The owners were incredibly flexible on the time (since we couldn't attend during the usual time slots and then we arrived 45 minutes early)! They were incredibly knowledgeable, spoke amazing English, and showed us a lot of local Costa Rican produce and so much of the coffee process. For the cheap price, I couldn't believe how many samples we had and it was ALL delicious. My husband wasn't looking forward to this but said it was so much better than he imagined. Go!

::Probably my favorite part of this trip. The owner did a spectacular job of not just informing us about the coffee and coffee harvesting but also the upside and the downsides and how they are mitigating for the downsides. We got to learn a great deal about diverse planting, issues in the coffee industry, and how they're creating new products with the coffee plant. Also this whole place is like a secret magical garden! We truly appreciate both owners doing this for us on a Sunday.
