We tried the most amazing mezcal and chocolate. Shamira was absolutely fantastic. My wife and I did this experience for our honeymoon and started off things right. We learned about the culture and importance of this drink. 10/10

This was the best experience ever! Sammy was very informative and she kept the entire thing very interesting! Would definitely comeback and recommend to others
I had an incredible experience thanks to our hostess, Sammy, who guided us through five different mezcals paired with artisanal chocolates. She was informative, kind, and genuinely engaging, making each tasting both approachable and memorable. You could feel her passion and deep knowledge throughout the experience. I even tried worm salts and grasshoppers and, to my surprise, enjoyed all of it. We also chatted about how easy and fun it is to post on TikTok, and she absolutely loves the platform. I made sure she’ll be on TikTok very soon, stay tuned 👀✨
Thank you Deondra, You made this experience very fun for all of us.
