A narrow dirt lane opens into a family farm where the smell of fresh earth and roasting beans meets the cool mountain air. At Don Jorge you step off the main road in Alajuela and into rows of coffee and cocoa that lean toward the sun; leaves whisper as you walk and a small cascade down-valley dares you to follow its sound. The experience moves at a relaxed pace—trail walks through plantation plots, a short visit to the waterfall, a cane-processing demonstration and a hands-on chocolate workshop where you press your own bar.
