Description
Discover the Magic of Peruvian Cocoa in the Heart of Cusco
Welcome to a unique experience that connects history, spirituality, and gastronomy! We specialize in Peruvian cocoa, and I invite you to a workshop where you'll explore every stage of this 'food of the gods.'
What will you experience?
Introduction to the world of cocoa: Its history in Peru (the origin of the first cocoa beans 3,000 years ago!) and its cultural importance.
Hands-on process: Select, grind, and mix with honey and milk to create your own chocolate.
Spiritual ceremony: Cocoa masks and group connection.
Premium tasting: Differences between Chuncho (fine Cusco cocoa) and commercial varieties.
Ethical & Sustainable Cocoa
We work with communities in Quillabamba and VRAEM, using ancestral methods free from exploitation. Peruvian cocoa is a Natural Heritage, and here you'll learn why it's unique: from its careful fermentation (key to floral notes) to its impact on the local economy.
