5.00I wanted to try the Geisha coffee, but learned so much more ! Maria was fantastic 👏🏾This tour was intimate very fulfilling. I was educated on the history of the cacao and coffee. I walked away with an understanding the process for both including the uniqueness of Geisha coffee. While I enjoyed the coffee the true star for me , unexpectedly was the chocolate 🍫 the quality and variety are outstanding!!! I walked away with a box and asking if they ship lol. Don’t walk, run to this tour.

5.00The shop was intimate and the owner/staff were super welcoming! This set the tone for us to learn about Cacoa beans- the history, the agriculture, the processing, and the cost! Once we had a thorough understanding, the team prepared Geisha coffee - delicious! To top off the experience, we added in the chocolates for the pairing and tasting. Each chocolate added another note to the coffee and it was perfection! Everything was so good that each of my friends took home their own personal collection. I would definitely return if in Panama again!
