Overview

Chocolate and wine are both shaped by fermentation and place. This guided tasting brings their stories together in a surprising way.

Taste three South American wines alongside artisanal tree-to-bar chocolates. Discover how each wine changes what you notice in the chocolate. Fruit, spice and earthy notes emerge, disappear and sometimes become something completely unexpected.

There is a story behind the pairing, too. Cacao is native to the Amazon. Wine arrived in Latin America from Europe. Today, both are grown and transformed across the continent.

At Cacao Huasi, we bring them together for an interesting and delicious conversation. Enjoy the tasting overlooking the Caribbean, with plenty of time to taste, talk and compare.

It is a unique Puerto Viejo experience for couples, date nights, celebrations and curious food lovers.

Activity itinerary

During the experience, you'll: • Taste several tree-to-bar chocolates made from Costa Rican cacao. • Explore how origin, fermentation, roasting, and chocolate style influence flavor. • Sample carefully selected wine pairings and discover how different wines can transform the experience of chocolate. • Learn simple tasting techniques used for both wine and chocolate, including aroma, body, acidity, tannins, and finish. • Compare different combinations and notice how flavors change when tasted together. • Enjoy a relaxed and interactive experience with plenty of time for conversation, questions, and discovering your personal favorite pairing. What Makes This Experience Special Unlike industrial chocolate tastings, we work with small-batch chocolate made with attention to origin and flavor. Our chocolates highlight the diversity of cacao and the craftsmanship behind tree-to-bar production. Wine and chocolate have more in common than most people realize. Both begin as fruit, both rely on fermentation, and both express the climate and place where they are grown. Together, they can reveal surprising notes of fruit, flowers, spice, creaminess, and depth.
