Old Tavern Coffee Estate lies about 1.5km southwest of Section. The owners, the Tywman family, welcome visitors by prior arrangement. You're treated to a lesson on coffee growing and production as well as a tasting session of two of the three arabica-bean roasts: dark, medium-dark and medium. Additionally, it produces the rare peaberry variety with a mild, subtle flavor.
