Chocolate and History - We booked this event as a treat during our trip to Tulum…and it exceeded expectations. We learned Mexican culture, myths and history, all while tasting and learning about cacao and chocolate. Sammy is passionate and knowledgeable. We loved it so much we may book one of her other tastings for our next trip.
