Explore a working coffee mill and learn about the process of how a simple coffee bean becomes an excellent cup of coffee. A guide will lead you through the different areas of the El Carmen coffee mill to describe each stage of coffee production and explain how the "cherry" coffee bean is transformed into a "green" coffee for export to companies like Starbucks, American Airlines and the Holiday Inn, among many others.

At the end of this tour, you will have the opportunity to see a short video on local coffee production and savor a cup of coffee that's been produced the old-fashioned way with a wooden coffee maker and cloth filter, in the comforts of the El Carmen estate home.
