How cocoa seed become chocolate - Fascinating morning learning about the transformation of chocolate from sapling to a rich, delicious chocolate bar. The main cacao plants are categorized into three primary varieties—Criollo, Forastero, and Trinitario. You learn of their history, where in the world they are grown, their hardiness and subtle taste differences. As you walk through the farm, you can see the delicate flowers on the trees, hear how they are pollinated and grow into pods. Every detail is important. The pods are picked at just the right time, cracked open and seeds are extracted. The process is clearly explained from start to finish. The tour then moves to a hands on presentation where you can smell and taste different phases of the chocolate production. If you are visiting Puerto Rico's Western area, this is a trip not to be missed!!!!

Interesting & interactive small group tour - Talks about PR’s agriculture & cacao farming interspersed with walking through the cacao farm & seeing the trees, flowers, & a variety of cacao pods in different stages of growth. Water & umbrellas were provided, & the process of making cacao into chocolate was described with examples at each stage. We sampled cacao husk tea & four different percentages of cacao made on the farm. Our kids ages 7-13 found it interesting.

Had a wonderful day learning about small scale regenerative cacao farming! - Had such a a fun time with Karilyn! She taught me and my partner so much about the farm, their regenerative farming practices, and the history of cacao farming in PR. I left feeling so happy to learn more about how Puerto Rico tends to their land, and even happier to support a small family farm. The tour was very intimate, just me my partner and Karilyn. It was so sweet to connect with her. And the tasting at the end was just perfect— I’ll be on the lookout for cacao husk tea for I think the rest of my life.

Enjoyable and Educational - Rafael, who owns this farm and led the tour, gave us an excellent tour and insight into his Cacao farm. We spent about 90 minutes in the field learning about the Cacao trees and the trials and tribulations of starting this farm from scratch. We went on a Friday and only had 4 people in our group which made it much more intimate. Try going during the week for smaller group size. The tour ends with a chocolate tasting which includes some surprisingly good cacao tea.

Entertaining, tasty cacao tour with a warm hearted grower - I am a professor of horticulture and I was very impressed with Rafael's knowledge of cacao production at his beautiful farm. He talked about his triumphs and failures with good humor and warmth. I, along with my 10 student group, really enjoyed tasting all his different types of chocolate as well as tasting the material around the raw beans. I would highly recommend this tour.

Cacao farm : field science and learning - This tour of a small cacao plantation is one of the best tours I’ve ever taken. Rafael, guide and farm owner, knows how to make his journey to become a successful cacao farmer deeply compelling. His learning about his land, how site-specific cacao growing is is quite an epic tale of learning, testing, observing, measuring, celebrating. He’s a great communicator, very open and able to answer all manner of questions. His farm is in the Puerto Rican highlands, beautiful and steep. The chocolate tasting at the end was profoundly appreciated in the light of the knowledge of ALL that goes into chocolate!
