Finca Buenos Aires Coffee Tour & Coffee Shop — Attraction in Quindío

It was a sad disappointment. Basically we had a Wikipedia lesson and some dress up.

First of all the tour lasted barely 1:20 min instead of 2 hours.

Second - we picked it because they advertise themselves and as the most interactive tour. But in reality they just let you plant a coffee and pick some beans and all is done with a lack of enthusiasm.

The pealing machine is filled with flies and looks disgusting. No other processes are demonstrated to you: fermentation - no, bean selection - no, roasting - no, bean grinding - no.

It’s just a long walk through the plantation of coffee and a lecture. Well, you should use your imagination for all the other processes.

Also, the tasting room is very unwelcoming. Why??? If they have such a nice terrace. and for the tasting, they chose the worst type of coffee fermentation (this is just my opinion). Washed coffee has the least atractive taste.

No wonder they don’t get so many visitors. Just save your time and money and go...

The finca that carried out the coffee tour we found completely by chance. On the way from Armenia to Pereira, you leave the road and enter a very difficult path. It is a path that is impossible for any other car to pass. It's about a 20 minute track. Then you arrive at this finca. The tour price per person is 35,000 COP. The same price applies to children. The tour takes about 2 hours. A wide range of information is given from the cultivation of coffee to its marketing. Finally, coffee tasting is done by talking about coffee preparation methods. There is also a cafe inside. They have very good coffees. I think a tour is also organized every 2 hours from Salento. On the way back, instead of taking it to the Armenia-Pereira road immediately, navigation applications continue to wander on a path. I think you can connect directly to the road. healthier. Finca also has coffee production and coffee sending service....

This place is amazing! I am sure that other coffee farms are nice, but no where near as informative, interactive and beautiful as Buenos Aires.

The guide was actually the son of the owner, and he knew so much about the land, the nature, the process of the coffee making, and so much more. He let us plant seeds, then seedlings, and then continued to show us the different stages of growth. We even got to pick our own coffee cherries! After, they explained the brewing process and let us have some coffee.

The place is beautiful and the people are so nice. They offer tours in English and Spanish. If you go, I would recommend taking a jeep ride from Salento or Filandia. If you are adventurous, I highly recommend standing on the back of the jeep during the ride, it is a little rough, but truly a unique and...
