Top Mexico City Classes & Workshops - page 6

This is not a typical guided walk at a museum, it’s a vivid experience in to the depths of our past where we will learn and understand so much about the pre columbian cultures that once lived on what’s now Mexican soil. All tho it’s fully possible to walk in on your own and look around the museum, you won’t get as much value of your time vs having experts to guide you and be ready to answer any question you might have. Our team: I’m a passionate historian who was spent the last 6 years researching and visiting different archeological sites for the pure pleasure of learning more about these fascinating people. After a fortunate unplanned turn of events, I started doing tours with the purpose of showing others the beauty of learning about the past and bringing these events back to life through some well done story telling. With time, a fellow anthropologist joined the team and we both have been on the mission to enrich our visitors experience.

Find tequilas you've never found right in the heart of Coyoacan.

Begin with an introduction to agave spirits, their history, their role in biodiversity, and their cultural significance in Mexico. Then, delve into the first spirit, exploring its origin, history, and tasting notes. For example, learn about Comiteco, a pulque spirit from Chiapas, made from the aguamiel extracted from Agave Americana in Comitán. This aguamiel ferments in living fermentation vats that have been continuously nurtured for generations, creating a unique aromatic and structural profile. Identify its aromas, flavors, and possible pairings, connecting each profile to its artisanal production process. Then, play a sensory game by introducing a key ingredient present in the spirit—such as cinnamon—so that you can smell it separately and recognize it within the drink, understanding the inspiration behind the cocktail you are about to taste.

We will meet at the iconic Palacio de Bellas Artes, where we will begin with a brief talk on the importance of chili in Mexican culture and cuisine. Then we will walk to Mercado 2 de Abril, considered the first public market in Mexico City founded in 1880. We will walk its corridors like real locals to select the best chilies, spices and other typical ingredients. You will learn to distinguish the different varieties of chili pepper : ancho, guajillo, tree, habanero, chipotle, pasilla, mulato and more. Afterwards, we will go to a private studio-workshop nearby, where we will make different types of sauces using techniques such as mashing and taming. The experience culminates with a sensory tasting in which we will taste the sauces accompanied by traditional snacks such as moles, cheeses and fruits, all designed to highlight flavors: sweet, salty, tangy, bitter and smoked.
