Our Specialty Coffee Workshop experience was outstanding. Booking was easy and perfectly accomadated our needs. Our group ranged from serious coffee enthusiast to " I don't really like coffee, but I will come along". Everyone sincerely enjoyed the experience. We all learned alot about coffee. We enjoyed visiting the different locations, checking out the roaster, learning about proper preparation, trying our tasting skills and meandering about one of Bogota's coolest neighborhoods. Karen was a terrific teacher and guide, who kept everyone engaged to the point that we kept her about an hour longer than scheduled. She was patient and gracious, answering all of our questions. I would highly recommend this workshop to anyone at any level of coffee interest; just a great, enjoyable experience from start to finish.

This was a wonderful workshop, I learned so much from Laura! She was super knowledgeable and kind. I’m not normally a coffee drinker, but I was still able to enjoy the experience fully with all the history behind the coffee of Colombia.

Laura was very kind and informative! She gave us a brief tour of the neighborhood while en route to our various destinations. I came away feeling I learned a lot about Colombian culture, the coffee scene included of course. I also loved that the tour company made an effort to support cafes that supported pickers, indigenous peoples, and other social causes. This tour was very well done and the perfect kick-off to our Colombian adventure.

There were many great highlights with this experience. I really did enjoy learning about the different coffees; and how to properly taste for the balance, note, and sweetness of the different types of coffee. Awesome tour guide! She was quite knowledgeable about coffee

They canceled this tour the day before it was to happen. I could not access email at the time, so I wasted hours traveling and waiting for the tour guide. They still sent me many emails about the trip even though they had cancelled the tour. I booked months in advance too. Do not waste your time booking this tour.

As a big fan and coffee lover and especially espresso style, I enjoyed the specialty coffee workshop conducted by the lovely Daniella who did a great job introducing the coffee shops (cafe 18, CAFE Cultor), explaining various coffees, and processes. We were a bit unlucky with power outage at the third coffee company so we ended up going back to #2. but it was still great and Cafe Cultor was great fun place and had a delicious coffee to end the event. Would have been nice to actually see/smell the roasting of the beans.
