I'd like to think that I am cultured, but this was only the second time that I have visited a coffee plantation and the first time that I have been exposed to so many different brewed beverages. When you arrive, the guide meets your vehicle and takes you on a tour of the plantation. Before you get too excited, it's not that kind of tour. You'll see the cat that makes poo coffee (the civet). They are nocturnal animals, so it will likely be sleeping. You'll see two different coffee plants and get an explanation of their differences. Next, you'll see coffee roasting, but I suspect this is only for show as there was an employee slowly sitting the beans back and forth over a small kettle. The highlight of the tour is the coffee tasting that consists of 14 different beverages! The civet coffee is not included as we didn't want to pay for it. The tasting was impressive and situated under a large thatched roof overlooking a valley. In the distance, you could catch a glimpse of the city. The next stop was the gift shop. We did purchase a bit, but I was confused by the use of the label "sugar-free" on some of the packaging. The packages do not have ingredient labels, which is a little weird and undercut our ability to fully understand what we were buying. The more interesting beverages for us, we're the vanilla coffee, the avocado coffee, and the mangosteen tea. You should ask lots of questions in the gift shop to be certain if you are purchasing pure coffee or...

For me it is a tourist scam. When arriving on site, guides are already waiting to welcome you. A short tour leads you through the a small garden with different plants/trees and the different steps of making coffee. The staff was very friendly and lovely. Their terrace has an incredible view. So much for the positive part. After a free tasting of different sorts of coffee and teas (the Kopi Luwak is not included and needs to be ordered), the activity ends with a shop where you can buy all the products from the tasting. But the products are not really produced by themselves but are cheap supermarket instant products without any ingredient list on the package. The prices are ridiculous. Furthermore, during the tour the guide explains that their coffee is produced by wild animals which makes it “the most expensive coffee in the world”. This cannot be true as they don’t sell the coffee for the common price of more than 1.000$ by kg but way cheaper, which corresponds more to the fact that the animals “live” in captivity under very bad circumstances. Long story short: I recommend you to avoid this place and to rather visit a real plantation ran by local people and not by those who want to make money based on animal abuse and...
