“We were greeted by our hosts on arrival with a refreshing cocktail along with three very friendly dogs. We had a wonderful tour of the beautiful hacienda while explaining the process of tequila making. Due to the season we were unable to see the process in action, but the presentation was done so well I fully understood the process. After the tour, we sat down for the tasting of five tequilas pairing with local chocolate. All the the tequilas were small batched and artesanal. All were very good. I came home with a bottle reposado.”

I got to see spider monkeys, a leopard, and taste the Mayan hot chocolate at the museum. The tour guide did not seem very knowledgeable about the sites. He did walk us through the beginning of each, said very little about the architecture or history, and gave us time at the end to explore. Lunch at Halach Huinic was delicious.”

First we were given a history of Mayan Cocoa which contained many interesting facts then we had the opportunity to taste freshly made corn tortillas before moving on the the making of Chocolate.
