Coffee Everything in Salento

From coffee farms and coffee beans to coffee sweets and coffee sauce - for three days during my trip through Colombia, my life was filled with coffee at every turn. Is there any better way to spend a holiday? If visiting Salento, you'll also find that coffee is absolutely everywhere - from your drink to your food - and this dish was no exception. Frying up a local Mojarra fish, Acaime douses it in a sweet coffee sauce for added flavour. This wasn't one of my favourite dishes as the sauce was a little too sweet for my liking, but thought it was worth a mention because of the sheer originality and link to Colombia's coffee culture. The dish is accompanied by deep-fried yuca sticks and salad. What I ate: Mojarra en Salsa de Cafe Price: 27,000 COP Find it: Acaime, Salento, Colombia #createwithtrip

Finca El Ocaso Salento

FROM BEAN TO CUP ☕️.⠀ ⠀ Did you know that an average worker in a coffee farm can pick up to 100kg of ripe coffee cherries PER DAY?!⠀ ⠀ This is the staggering amount we learned is normally collected by individual pickers (by hand!) during the two picking seasons the Ocasa Coffee Plantation sees every year. We spent an afternoon exploring the sights, sounds and smells of the Ocasa Coffee Plantation to learn all about how our favourite cup o’ Joe is made. From planting the seed, to picking the ripe cherries and sorting the beans, we learned heaps about the process and admire the work that goes into producing coffee beans so much more!⠀ ⠀ 📍Ocasa Coffee Plantation, Salento, Quindio, Colombia⠀ #leaveyourmark
