You’ll have to head deep into the volcanic mountain ranges that rise to the skies in the heart of Sao Tome island to find the aged colonial factories and coffee-growing haciendas of Monte Cafe.
As you might imagine, even the drive there is one for the travel journals: sweeping vistas of primeval rainforest; endless valleys of misty woods; the occasional rusting hamlet of tin-shack homes.
Once there, you’ll enjoy beautiful views of the palm-dotted highlands of the country, along with one acclaimed coffee museum, chronicling the cultivation, sales and history of the island’s major industry.
