Experience the heart of Colombian coffee at a traditional farm in Salento, where you’ll learn, feel, and taste every stage of this national treasure!
Tour Description
Immerse yourself in the heart of the Coffee Cultural Landscape with our Coffee Farm Tour at Finca El Ocaso, an authentic experience that will connect you with every stage of the coffee process—from seed to cup. Nestled in the lush mountains of Salento, this traditional coffee farm is the perfect setting to explore one of Colombia’s most cherished traditions: coffee cultivation.
The tour begins at the main entrance of Finca El Ocaso, where you’ll be welcomed by a certified local guide passionate about sharing the knowledge and history that make Colombian coffee among the best in the world. As you walk through the coffee plantations, you’ll learn about the full production cycle: from planting, nurturing, and hand-harvesting the beans, to depulping, fermentation, drying, and selection processes.
You’ll explore every corner of the farm while learning about the traditional and sustainable techniques that generations of coffee farmers have perfected. You'll discover how Salento’s climate, altitude, and volcanic soil directly impact the quality of the coffee bean and uncover the secrets of the wet processing method, one of the most commonly used techniques in the region.
But the experience doesn’t end there. After understanding the production and commercialization processes, you’ll arrive at the most anticipated moment: the coffee tasting. Guided by experts, you’ll engage your senses to identify aromas, flavors, notes, and textures in a carefully curated tasting session. You’ll also learn about various brewing methods like V60, French Press, and Chemex, and how each influences the final flavor of the drink.
This tour is an educational, sensory, and deeply inspiring experience. More than just a visit to a farm, you’ll live the passion and hard work behind every cup of Colombian coffee. It’s a direct connection to the culture, the land, and its people, one you absolutely can’t miss.
