Cafe Ruiz Coffee Tour

Commercialism led by conscience. For every purchase of our coffee, you are helping to preserve the ecological richness of our farms. Much of the coffee in the world is grown using monoculture technique of clearing the land by cutting all the trees and planting high production hybrid coffee varieties. Cafe Ruiz and our friends (small-scale family farms) choose the shade-grown coffees; coffee that is grown beneath the trees. While this method does not produce as high a yield, the combination of shade trees and coffee plants provide food and shelter for migratory or resident birds and other species of animals. Telephone 720-1000

The Haven Hotel Rooms -

A cafetière (aslso known a French press or coffee plunger) is a tall, glass cylinder with a plunger that includes a wire mesh filter composed of metal or nylon. The coffee and hot water are combined in the cylinder (normally for four to seven minutes) before the plunger is depressed, leaving the coffee at the top ready to be poured. This style of “total immersion brewing” is considered by many coffee experts to be a good way to prepare your coffee. The coffee bean grind needs to be slightly coarser.

Our rooms have a French press so you can enjoy your morning coffee on the terrace outside your room
