Immerse yourself in an authentic experience around traditional Oaxacan cocoa and chocolate, guided by a native Oaxaca chocolatier with deep ancestral knowledge. In this practical workshop you will learn about the cultural origin of cocoa, its historical relevance in Mexico and the artisan process that transforms the bean into chocolate, as it has been done for generations.
Throughout the experience, you will work directly with cocoa beans: you will learn to roast, hull, grind and refine cocoa, while discovering its unique aromas, textures and flavors. The workshop places special emphasis on Oaxacan traditions and the cultural value of chocolate as food, ritual and living heritage.
To close the experience, you will make your own Oaxacan chocolate bar, molded and packed by you, which you can take with you as a memory of genuine, sensory and deeply connected learning with the earth and its people.
