El Trapiche tour is a Costa Rican Family project that offers visitors a two hour long guided tour.
You'll begin with a walk on the farm where guests will learn about the production of sugarcane, coffee, and the traditional ways of cultivating bananas, arracache (a local legume), avocado, macadamia nuts as well as other products. Also one can observe a Tilapia fish project and a small-forested area where it is possible to see various flora and fauna of the Monteverde zone.
During the tour of the farm, visitors will have the opportunity to collect coffee, transport it to the grinding machines and see how the delicious Monteverde coffee is made. Also you'll find the traditional cart waiting to transport you to the sugarcane mill where the guide will demonstrate the process of making brown sugar and all the other types of products made from sugarcane. One can also enjoy a representation of the extraction of guaro, a Costa Rican alcohol made from sugarcane. To end this eventful tour our guests can enjoy “picadillo de arracache”, a traditional vegetable hash, accompanied by a cup of coffee or lemonade.
