Description

Begin your experience with a warm welcome at a family-run cacao farm surrounded by tropical greenery and wildlife. After a short introduction, walk through the plantation and learn how cacao grows directly from the trunk of the tree — one of nature’s most fascinating processes. Along the way, hear stories of how cacao was used in Costa Rican and Mesoamerican cultures, not just as food, but as a sacred and ceremonial ingredient. Open fresh cacao pods, taste the natural pulp inside, and understand the difference between raw cacao and the chocolate we know today. Next, take part in a traditional chocolate workshop. Using stone grinding techniques, roast, peel, and grind cacao beans just like it was done centuries ago. Then, transform your cacao paste into your own chocolate creation. Choose your flavors — from local spices to tropical ingredients — and craft a chocolate bar that reflects your personal taste. Once your chocolate is ready, sit down and enjoy a guided tasting session featuring different cacao percentages and local variations. Pair your creations with warm cacao drinks and fresh tropical fruits. Take a moment to relax in the peaceful rainforest setting, listen to the sounds of nature, and enjoy the slow rhythm of rural Costa Rican life.
