- MedellinDayTrips - From your hotel we head to the coffee farm in our comfortable private car.
Once there, a charming married couple of farmers welcomes us with a delicious cup of coffee.
While you are enjoying a nice cup of coffee, the expert gives you an informative introduction into the world of Colombian coffee. Feel free to ask any questions.
As you listen and participate of the conversation, we begin to give you the coffee we produce in different brewing methods and then we explain the different flavor notes in each of them, so you learn to differenciate the sour, bitter and sweet characteristics of the coffee.
After this very entertaining introduction, we continue with the next activity: planting the coffee seeds in the seedbed as we explain the timeline for each stage when they are growing into a tree.
After we have more context we begin the walk around the coffee plantation.
Before we do it we provide you buckets, hats and rain boots to do the activity with a proper outfit.
