Why you will love this hike

​

For most people the only way to start the day is with a steaming cup of coffee on the breakfast table. What does coffee actually look like before it ends up in the bag as flour? You will find out all this on this hike. We visit people who grow coffee and look over their shoulders at work. After that, you will definitely appreciate your coffee even more.
