Above Minca: Visit to a family that produces organic cocoa

Hike in the Sierra Nevada, discover a family-run cacao farm, taste fresh beans and make your own artisan chocolate at Ecotopia.
WHAT YOU WILL EXPERIENCE:
From Ecotopia, it all starts with a hike that descends along a ridge with magnificent vantage points. After an hour and 15 minutes of walking, you will arrive at the home of David and Peluzo, two brothers who love nature. A house made of earth and wood, a charming rustic setting, and cocoa trees in the shade of fruit trees. Here, there is no tourist front desk or scripted tour: you are their only visitors. The whole family is there, and it is with genuine pride that they open the doors to their world and let you discover what they grow and craft with their own hands.

You'll explore their crops, discover different varieties, and learn how to graft a cacao tree. Then comes the time to pick a pod, open it and taste its white, sweet pulp.

You will then follow the journey of the beans, from fermentation to drying. You'll taste them as they are, paired with a drink prepared on the farm.

On the way back, you can stop at Cascada Grande, a majestic waterfall all to yourselves.

At 5:00 p.m. at Ecotopia, it's time for the workshop: roasting, grinding in the mill, blending, and molding. You'll learn the steps that transform the bean into chocolate. And most importantly, you'll make your own chocolate with your own hands.
