    Sandra Farms - Great coffee

    Our visit to Sandra Farms was one of the most enjoyable experiences we had on the island! Our…read moreguide, Carmelo, was spectacular - he was a wealth of knowledge, and long after we left, we kept talking about what we learned there, not only about the process of growing and processing coffee, but about Puerto Rico as a whole. I honestly won't look at coffee the same way again! Even my daughter and husband who don't drink coffee agreed that the samples we tasted were quite excellent - even without cream or sugar. The setting was breathtaking, and photos just won't do it justice, though I took many in an attempt to capture it accurately. Really lovely... Do not let the commentary on the roads to Sandra Farms deter you from going. We were in a sedan and it was fine, if a little bumpy in places. However, a word to the wise regarding driving there - first, download your Google maps before you leave WiFi service, because you will definitely go offline. Signage on roads is not always present (true throughout PR), and there are some forks in the road that aren't entirely clear. Second, people who live in this mountainous area (and there are many) are used to these roads, and often - as my mother used to say - take their half out of the middle. Drive slower than you think you should. The roads are narrow and feel more like 1 and 1/2 lanes, not 2 lanes. It is rare to find a line down the middle of these roads. There are often no guardrails, and sometimes not much of a shoulder. Our family had a great time squealing and laughing as my husband braved the many hairpin turns - it is definiely do-able, but just don't try to speed your way there. We got a cute t-shirt that said we survived the road to Sandra Farms, proving that it is just as noteworthy as any other attraction! Finally, these are the most gracious hosts - we were running late, because of a wrong turn, and they were so kind and patient. They made us all feel like we were friends that hadn't been able to visit in a long time. I definitely intend to return one day, and will be supporting their coffee production from home via their website. Te quiero Sandra Farms!

I think that says a lot about how much we enjoyed this lol. The drive to the farm was beautiful. Yes the last 15-30 minutes are a little rough and narrow. The views are stunning once you arrive. Tal (likely spelling her name wrong, so sorry!) was a sweetheart during the tour! I learned about the coffee making process, how much effort it takes to be an organic farm and to truly appreciate that cup of espresso. I'm unsure about other farms but all the coffee beans here are harvested by hand! After we did a very brief walk to the coffee plants, we went to try some freshly brewed coffee. Roasted the regular and natural way, with delicious chocolate and banana biscotti treats as well. We also loved all the fruit trees we saw, even star apples! Israel was kind enough to let us pick the fruit we wanted!

    If you're looking for an escape away from the city, come and relax on this charming coffee…read moreplantation. This coffee heaven is nestled in in the hills of Lares which sits 2 hours outside of Old SJ. This places it a well worth the experience day trip. The best part of the trip is the walk up coffee tour that's free. You get to walk up to the machinery and the employees welcoming you to show you how the coffee is made. You can see it from natural coffee to bagged coffee. Please be aware that the employees don't speak English which I could be 100% wrong, but despite that you can see the whole roasting process - FREE! I'd also invite you to check out their coffee shop where they sell homemade baked goods, they have a few merch items, and the best part is the back porch. Let. Me. Tell. You... the views alone are wonderful. Take in a fresh latte made with love. If you want a little bit more of a relaxed ambience take a tiny stroll underneath the cafe and unwind at the water mill and see the birds... btw there is another set of restrooms there. So I highly recommend taking a small trek out into the mountains to grab a pure taste of Puerto Rico's finest coffee.
