4 hour Cacao Tour Experience
Things to know
About the Activity
Our Center is located in the tropical rainforest of Lanquin, Guatemala. Our aim is to regenerate the land, promote sustainable community development, and entrepreneurship through ecotourism, artisanal production, organic agriculture, and education. Within our facilities, we craft a variety of products using raw materials (such as cacao, turmeric, ginger, cardamom, among others) with a network of farming families that make up the "Ratzum Cacao Network," which was created as part of the community organization process driven by the project. Our cacao tour takes you on a journey of the regenerative practices we use at the center, including the processing of fermentation and drying of cacao. We discuss the mysticism behind the rich Q'eqchi' Cosmovision and Culture. Then you make your own chocolates on the ancestral stone grinder and best of all you get to eat it and take it home with you!4 hours
