Mezcal isn’t meant to be rushed—and neither is a great Mexican lunch. Take your seat in downtown Cozumel as an expert guide leads you through six distinct mezcals, sharing the history, cultural significance, and character behind every pour.
As the tasting unfolds, enjoy a gourmet lunch featuring local specialties selected to complement the experience. The intimate small-group setting leaves plenty of room to ask questions, compare favorites, and enjoy the conversation around the table.
By the final sip, you’ll understand mezcal a little better, know which one you would order again, and have downtown Cozumel waiting just outside to continue exploring before returning to your cruise ship.
