Finca Cafetera Margus

Finca Cafetera Margus is run by Martha and Gustavo along with their daughters, the fifth generation of their family to grow coffee on this hillside outside Jardín — a lineage the farm states directly rather than merely implying with rustic staging. Visitors take a roughly three-hour walk through the full process in sequence: collection, pulping and fermentation, drying and roasting, finishing with a tasting prepared three different brewing ways, plus a homemade snack and fresh juices included in the visit. The farm sells its own whole-bean and ground Arabica directly from the property — no distributor between the picking and the bag — and extends the visit into an overnight stay for anyone who doesn't want the trip to end at the tasting: a luxury cabin with a private jacuzzi and full kitchen overlooking Jardín and the Andes, or simpler double rooms with a shared terrace, both rates including breakfast. The property sits on an elevated, difficult access road, and visitors are collected from town rather than driving in directly — a detail that underlines how much this is a working farm first, arranged for visitors rather than built around them. For coffee bought at the point of harvest rather than after import, this is a fifth-generation address that proves it.
