This is a working coffee plantation, it produces coffee. You can see the entire proces from the coffee plant to the roasted coffee bean. You can also taste their coffee in the cafe. They have all their coffee there to taste and you can chose how the coffee is made for you, from Indonesia way as kopi tubruk, as filtered, or French press. There is also a restaurant where you can eat a bit. The factory can be visited as well to see the roasting and milling. In the factory there is all the coffee they produce for you to smell and of course you can buy the coffee here, in powder, or as whole beans. Coffee in the form of powder can also be bought in the cafe.There is a small packet and a bigger one. I bought small packages of all to taste at home and bought a kilo of whole beans from the most nicest smelling coffee. There is also a museum with a lot of stuff from the past and many of that stuff is Dutch. Also the sign board on the entrance gate is still in Dutch and from the past. Some buildings at the plantation are also still from the Dutch area and build by the Dutch. Street names inside the plantation and some signs boards in building have still Dutch names or writings. And the name itself Keboen Kopi Karanganjar, is still the old Dutch writing. In modern Indonesia, keboen (garden) is nowadays written as kebun. For me that was interesting to see as I am Dutch but also partly Indonesian. Besides the museum there is also a small souvenir shop and there is coffee education, where they explain al about coffee. We have also met the current owner, who is now the third generation. That was very interesting and he took the time to speak with us. All the employees here where very friendly and helpful. We stayed here about 4 hours. We came already in the afternoon and so towards the evening there was an enormous sound of all sorts of animals and insects living in the trees in and around the plantation. That was also a nice experience. I can strongly recommend this interesting place. It is interesting about coffee, it is nature, and it is calm and relaxing.

I am Yoga Efendi, a traveler from Yogyakarta. This is not my first time traveling to Trowulan. Many times already. I have suggestion for you to enjoy the Trowulan in a very effective and efficient way. 1. From the main road you can go to Candi Brahu. 2. Follow the road to visit The Sleeping Buddha Statue and then go to the main road. 3. Visit Kolam Segaran, the super big ancient pool 4. Visit Majapahit Museum and then Bajang Ratu Temple. 5. The last, visit Candi Tikus. The list above is the highlight destinations in Trowulan.

This is a very calm and beautiful place. You can find peace here. There is a cave with a statu of Maria where people pray. There are also misses held on Sunday's. It is a Catholic church but all people of all religions or none are welcome. On a very warm day the location has enough trees to produce some shade. It is a very good place to relax and find inner peace. It is a quiet place as well and very clean and well maintained. It has many statues and a few caves and beautiful flowers as well. I can recommend it.
