The best chocolate workshop

A unique and very informative experience for chocolate and cacao lovers, even for people who do not know much about chocolate. It shows you the entire creation process and is an experience where you taste different types of chocolates. I loved it and it is something I highly recommend.

Wonderful Cultural Chocolate Experience!

Our group of 6 had an absolutely amazing time! Our experience was so in depth and really showed us all portions of the traditional chocolate making process ! We felt like we came away with a much deeper knowledge and appreciation for chocolate history and connection to the culture of the region. We got to get our hands dirty (in a very fun way!) and all the chocolate treats we got to sample along the way were delicious! Thank you so much!

The perfect pairing

An unmissable experience. The cacao and mezcal tasting was spectacular; you can tell the love and knowledge they have for what they do. The hosts were magnificent, super warm, they make you feel at home and explain everything in a very approachable way. You learn, you enjoy, and you taste delicious things. 100% recommended, I would return without hesitation!
