Summary: This was a great experience! We learned so much about the coffee making process and you can tell that this is their passions. We got to see the whole process and then toast our own beans! Incredible! And it ended with a coffee tasting using different brewing methods. If you are staying in Boquete, they offer a shuttle from down town to!

Summary: We really enjoyed this coffee tour -- we had a very personalized experience! The owners and tour guide took time to explain everything about the process of growing, picking, drying, roasting, and preparing coffee... and of course we had a chance to taste throughout. But best of all, the tour was hands-on! We had the chance to perform every part of the process, including roasting beans to take home with us. The flock of ducks and two finca dogs were a bonus for us animal lovers.
