Description:

Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of gourmet coffee − Costa Rica’s most important and prestigious crop.  Follow the journey of the coffee bean from the moment it leaves the plantation until it becomes a cup of fresh delight.

Since 1991, this award-winning tour has educated and entertained more than half a million visitors on a colorful journey through a working plantation and roasting facility.  The green highlands of Costa Rica’s fertile Central Valley seem to jostle for attention every time Café Britt’s professional acting troupe, dressed in traditional garb, leads visitors through their "finca" or plantation.

If you take this tour, your day will start in six acres (2.5 hectares) of coffee fields, tropical gardens and coffee-processing facilities. You will stroll through a thriving farm as songbirds chirp from shade trees overhead, and you may observe the wild orchids and exuberant foliage of the beautifully landscaped grounds.

Coffee experts will teach you about sustainable growing practices and coffee’s vital role in Costa Rica’s social and economic evolution.  From the fields, you will continue to the roasting and packaging facilities, where you will breathe in the aroma of roasting coffee and learn all about the magical process that turns a red coffee cherry into a delicious cup of java.  You will also learn about the art of professional coffee tasting − and why it is OK to slurp!

The tour will finish with a visit to the well-stocked coffee-and-gift store. There, if you chose, you may enjoy a delicious lunch of creative cuisine prepared with Costa Rica’s freshest produce at the on-site Don Prospero restaurant.  See if you can stump Café Britt’s baristas by ordering any coffee drink you can imagine!
