At Cacao Huasi in Puerto Viejo, our Mezcal & Chocolate Pairing Experience invites you to explore the relationship between artisanal mezcal and craft chocolate through guided tasting, storytelling and sensory exploration, enjoyed on our deck overlooking the Caribbean as sunset approaches.

Two Ancient Traditions, few pairings feel as natural as mezcal and chocolate.

Both begin as plants deeply rooted in the landscapes of Mexico and Mesoamerica. Both are transformed through time, fermentation, fire, and craftsmanship. And both reveal remarkable complexity when we slow down and pay attention.

Together we'll taste a selection of 3 traditional mezcals alongside carefully chosen chocolates, learning how smoke, fruit, spice, earth, flowers, and fermentation interact across both worlds.

Whether you're completely new to mezcal or already a passionate enthusiast, this experience offers a unique way to deepen your appreciation of flavor.
