Description

Dive into the fascinating world of coffee and discover why Colombia is known for having some of the best quality beans in the world. This shared tour from Salento is the perfect opportunity to learn everything about the coffee process—from seed to cup. You’ll visit a traditional coffee farm where you’ll get to participate in the entire coffee-making process. From planting seedlings and picking ripe coffee cherries to savoring a freshly brewed cup, this short but immersive experience will help you truly appreciate the journey behind every cup of coffee. We’ll meet at the central plaza of Salento, where your group and guide will gather to start the tour. Hop into a traditional Willys Jeep for a scenic ride to a coffee farm with over 100 years of history, nestled among the rolling hills of the Coffee Triangle. Follow a coffee expert through the plantation to learn each step of the process. You'll get hands-on by planting seedlings and harvesting cherries, then observe the drying, roasting, and sometimes grinding of the beans most of which is still done by hand. Enjoy a guided tasting session where local baristas will teach you how to identify the traits of high-quality Colombian coffee while answering all your questions. After a memorable experience in the coffee experience, we’ll return to Salento’s central square, where the tour will conclude.
