Huatulco Harbor
The coffee estate "Villa Don Gabriel" is located 40 minutes from Huatulco in a town called Pluma Hidalgo situated between the hills and the Oaxacan fog. I spent one night with my family there, disconnected from urban life without the sounds of cars and disruptions of technology. It was a wonder, especially the coffee experience. When we arrived, we were greeted by a friendly host and offered freshly baked bread and a cup of coffee. We got a tour of the coffee factory and the process leading to the production of coffee from the plant to the cup was explained. The tour ended with a museum visit, where you find coffee grinders hundreds of years old and freshly harvested beans, depicting the flavors of Mexico. In the evening, the restaurant offered all sorts of traditional Oaxacan dishes that my family and I enjoyed: tlayudas, memelas, quesadillas with fresh hand-made tortillas, smoked meat, sausage and cheese, all accompanied with fresh water. There were also traditional Oaxacan moles.
