Visite authentique d'une plantation de café à Monteverde avec une famille locale
Description
Plus qu'un simple apprentissage du café, vous le vivrez de l'intérieur, dans une ferme familiale au cœur de la vallée de San Luis, à Monteverde. Cette visite est guidée par la famille Ramírez Brenes, producteurs de café depuis plus de 30 ans, qui ouvrent les portes de leur maison pour partager non seulement le processus de fabrication du café, mais aussi leur histoire, leurs connaissances et leur mode de vie. Ici, pas de foule ni de scénarios impersonnels. Des promenades sont proposées parmi les orchidées, les ficus, les cultures biologiques et les arômes frais des montagnes. Vous torréfierez du café de vos propres mains, visiterez une vieille maison pleine de souvenirs et dégusterez une tasse accompagnée de pâtisseries maison préparées par Doña Denia, comme si vous faisiez partie de la famille. C'est une expérience intime, authentique et transformatrice. Idéal pour ceux qui recherchent l'authenticité : le contact direct avec la nature, la culture locale et l'âme du café costaricien.

A superb visit where we were able to ask all the questions we wanted even though the explanation was very interesting and exciting, we had an English translator who was part of the family. Really a good time.
This tour was absolutely outstanding - I can not recommend it highly enough. Book this every time over commercial coffee tours 💯 We had a full tour of the garden explaining all the different plants and coffee beans and the process of them growing as well as all the fruits, which we were able to sample. We then got to experience traditional and modern methods of preparing the beans with the chance to roast and sample your own beans - something that none of the commercial tours offer. You’ll never have a better opportunity to experience fresher coffee from bean to roast to cup. Victor and his family were so welcoming, giving us a private experience and gave us freshly made coffee and family baked goods at the end, along with the opportunity to purchase coffees in various forms (eg honey roast) at a fraction of the cost you pay in Monteverde. An absolute winner of an experience, thank you so much.
Very nice experience Small scale and cosy
Very nice visit, we were shown around by the family themselves. Delicious coffee afterwards
This was a really unique and wonderful experience! We wanted to experience some of the local culture and we're also coffee lovers, so this was perfect. We found out this is one of very few remaining small coffee farms that operate like this, and they have incredible product. The farm was especially unique since it felt more like a garden, with a variety of other plants and even a waterfall - very picturesque. The tour lead was also incredibly kind and knowledgeable.
If you're truly interested in learning about coffee, growing practices, and the history of coffee, this is the tour for you! Our knowledgeable guide was the brother-in-law of the owner, Victor, and he made us feel so welcome. You could tell the family is passionate about what they do and how they do it without relying on chemicals. Victor's farm was absolutely gorgeous and learning about the intricate thought and care put into the property was inspiring, especially in a world that so quickly resorts to shortcuts in order to chase a profit. During the tour, we were able to learn (sometimes hands-on) about the entire process of growing, harvesting, roasting, and brewing the coffee, as well as the history of those practices. Tasting the coffee at the end while enjoying home-baked bread was just the cherry on top!
