Historisches Anwesen aus dem 18. Jahrhundert mit Kokosnuss-Degustation

Guide was very polite and informative. Saw a number of of plants and enjoyed the cacao and coconut demonstrations. Lovely manor and interesting Caribbean village.

Went here on our last day on the island more as something to fill the time rather than anything else. I had looked up their tours online so I knew what we wanted to do: a basic tour of the estate coupled with the rum and chocolate tasting. In total for 2 adults we paid $72 which was quite expensive but I would say the rum tasting was quite generous. Dalton was our guide and he was very knowledgeable about various plants/ cocoa making etc. Seeing what to do with a harvested coconut was very interesting. The tour took about 30 minutes and we were the only couple on it. I would say this is an activity which you can do spontaneously and don't need to book. After the tour we sat down with another couple to do the rum and chocolate tasting. My husband doesn't drink alcohol so you can pay a lower amount just for the chocolate tasting. For the rum tasting, we tried 12 different rum 'drinks'. I don't particularly like rum but the first 6 drinks were all rum liqueurs which were lovely. They were served in shot glasses and I would say each sample was appr 2cm deep, so a good sized sample. Towards the end we got to the proper rums finishing off with one at 80%proof (which none of the group fancied ????). For the chocolate tasting there were 4 different sorts of dark chocolate, all of which tasted lovely and were served in between different rums. As a quick activity in the morning I would recommend it. The place is right on the main highway out of Soufriere and very easy to find. We drove from here to the Toraille waterfall which made for a nice morning's activity.

The grounds are beautiful--unfortunately our tour guide was an older teen who seemed really bored and was reciting from a script in his head. Would have preferred a "this is what it was like to live on the estate type of tour." I would love to come back another time and try the zip line because the grounds are lovely. The gift shop is very nice and many on the tour made purchases. Would have preferred skipping the snack in the pavilion and heading back to our transportation early. Restrooms were available and clean.
