The first stage is seed sprouting, seedlings and transplantation to the field. You will learn how coffee plants are treated carefully from the very beginning to assure a good quality producing plant. You will then move onto the coffee crops where you’ll be able to see different coffee varieties and learn how to pick up and select the best coffee cherries. After picking up some coffee cherries you will move onto processing. At this stage, you will see how coffee is washed, fermented and dried depending on the characteristics the coffee farmer wants to enhance. You will see traditional methods of processing and machines that have been used since the coffee boom in Colombia. Finally, you will return to the starting point to sip onto another cup of coffee and learn more directly from the coffee experts. When the farm tour is over you will have a stop at San Francisco’s main square to enjoy a traditional lunch before returning to your hotel in Bogotá.
