Amazing experience here! All the rum and chocolate was phenomenal! Staff was so knowledgeable and patiently explained the tasting process. I happened to come on an evening with live music and it was perfect especially with the view of the ocean in front. Can't wait to come back!

There were four types of rum to taste paired with four types of chocolate, all homemade from the cocoa beans of the farm or surrounding farms. Earlier, there was a statement on the emergence of cocoa culture on the Caribbean coast. Coupled with sea view directly to sunset- I would just as recommend
Thank you Ulrike so much for your kind words. We’re really happy you enjoyed the rum and chocolate pairing, and that the story of cacao culture on the Caribbean coast added to the experience. Sharing locally sourced cacao and handmade chocolate is something we care deeply about, and the sunset view makes it even more special. It was a pleasure to host you, and we hope to welcome you back to Cacao Huasi again soon. Thank you for the recommendation!
The experience is set in a historic area with an AMAZING view of the water. The chocolatier’s knowledgeable and answered a wide variety of questions. The chocolate and the rum were delicious. We found a combo that ended up tasting like a peanut MnM! 100% worth it.
