CHOCOLATE
A journey from cocoa to cup.
During this experience, travelers will discover Ecuadorian cacao from its origin and live, step by step, its transformation into chocolate.
They will start by getting to know the corn and exploring its aromas, textures, and flavors. They will try the cocoa at different stages—from the mucilage and the nibs to the chocolate—while discovering what happens during fermentation, drying, roasting, and artisanal making.
Through questions, tastings, and demonstrations, they will understand the science behind each transformation and discover how a fruit can become a chocolate bar and, finally, a cup.
It will be a trip to discover it with all the senses.
