Gourmet Tour - Lunch, Wine & Coffee In Agaete Valley

OVERVIEW

Tour a coffee plantation in Agaete Valley near the island’s northwestern coast and enjoy a traditional Canarian lunch with a variety of local wines. Coffee has been cultivated in the valley since the late 19th century but not in great quantities. Connoisseurs consider it a specialty coffee because of its rarity, elegant taste and aroma of licorice and chocolate. You will be served a cup of this Arabica Typical coffee with dessert, but not before being served a spectacular multi-course meal at the restaurant Casa Romantica. Creamy locally sourced goat butter and goat cheese are ingredients in many of the dishes. You will also be offered a choice of entrées that typically include grilled beef entrecote with vegetables, or White Canarian fish with watercress pil-pil sauce. The artisan sourdough bread is from one of the island’s oldest bakeries. It all leads up to the rice pudding dessert, served with coffee from the Agaete Valley.
