Awesome Colombian coffee class! - David was super knowledgeable about coffee, the roasting process, global bean varieties, coffee history and more. We got to sample multiple coffee varieties and brewing styles. Definitely worth it, especially if you love coffee. Plus, we David is very funny and didn’t rush through the class, and we go to take down Colombian coffee home with us. Would do again!

Amazing experience! - David is incredible. Not only was the coffee tasting delicious, it was informative and interactive! My group and I learned so much about the history and traditions of coffee and got a free bag of coffee at the end. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cartagena or who loves coffee!

Coffee Lab - This was a grat experience, we both got to learn so much more about coffee. David was a master at his craft and made it super engaging and fun. We stayed behind a little to talk to him some more and never felt rushed or like we were bothering him. You can tell he loves what he does.

Cartagena Coffee buzz - My husband is not a coffee drinker, but he enjoyed the coffee master's explanation of the types of beans and the ways to prepare the best beverage on earth.

Good, but not great. - Was interesting and the coffee was outstanding! Just too long (3 hours and 2 would have been plenty long). Also we were jammed in. We had a group of nine, and there was barely room for us, then 2 more joined us. Uncomfortably tight.

Not worth it! Bad hosting! Bad coffee! - First we were not accepted at the scheduled time as the host was not even aware of the event. So we had to go two hours later. About the actual time experience, they was not roasting of the beans and none of it was interactive at all. The host just talked for two hours and spoke fast and softly with a thick accent and it was to understand what he was saying. I asked him to speak up a few times and it didn’t change anything. And he never engaged the audience in any way and kept talking the whole time without making sure anyone was following along. And all the coffees prepared as part of this experience tasted pretty bad. So total waste of money and time.
