Santiago MatatlanWe will visit an Artisanal mezcal distillery and discover how Oaxaca’s most iconic spirit is crafted.

Your local hosts will also teach you the proper way to appreciate mezcal before you enjoy a guided tasting of a variety of handcrafted mezcals. Be ready—you’ll likely discover a new favorite! Or many!

Experience one of Oaxaca’s most treasured culinary traditions as you’re welcomed into the home of a traditional Zapotec cook. This is not a restaurant—it’s a family home, where recipes and cooking techniques have been passed down through generations. Enjoy a Mole tasting, three authentic Oaxacan moles, each showcasing the authentic flavors that have been preserved for generations in Oaxaca’s indigenous villages. Your tasting is accompanied by handmade tortillas using organic corn, refreshing fruit water and local mezcal. Vegetarian options are also available, ensuring every guest can enjoy this unforgettable culinary experience. More than a meal, this is a unique opportunity to connect with a local family and experience the warmth of Oaxacan hospitality in an intimate and authentic setting.
-
Continuing our experience with the same Zapotec family, you’ll step into the world of traditional Oaxacan chocolate. More than a cooking workshop, this is a cultural experience where you’ll discover the deep connection between cacao and the traditions of the Zapotec people. Your host will share part of their knowledge of cacao, explaining how it was once used as currency in pre-Hispanic times and how it continues to symbolize love, hospitality, and celebration during family gatherings, weddings, and Day of the Dead traditions. Guided by her, you’ll select cacao seeds on a table, roast them on a traditional wood-fired comal, peel them by hand, and grind them on a stone metate, just as chocolate has been traditionally prepared in Oaxaca’s indigenous communities for generations. Finally, you’ll whisk your own authentic hot chocolate using a traditional molinillo and enjoy it served with a local sweet bread. The perfect ending to this unforgettable cultural experience.
-
Teotitlan del ValleTo conclude our day, we’ll visit a family textile workshop where generations of Zapotec artisans continue to preserve their traditional weaving techniques. Discover the fascinating process of handcrafting wool rugs, from preparing the wool and operating traditional looms to creating vibrant natural dyes from plants, flowers, insects, and minerals. The family will guide you through each step of the weaving process, answer your questions, and warmly welcome photos. Before we return, you’ll have time to browse their beautiful gallery, where every rug is handcrafted and available for purchase, offering a meaningful way to support the local artisan community.
