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 storey 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

Enjoy a guided wine and chocolate tasting at Cacao Huasi in Puerto Viejo, overlooking the Caribbean as sunset approaches. Explore how craft chocolate and carefully selected wines interact through flavour, aroma, texture and fermentation. During the experience, you'll: • Taste tree-to-bar chocolates made from local, organic Costa Rican cacao. • Explore how origin, fermentation, roasting and chocolate style influence flavour. • Sample selected wines and discover how they transform chocolate. • Learn tasting techniques including aroma, body, acidity, tannins and finish. • Compare combinations and discover your favourite pairing. What Makes This Experience Special We work with small-batch chocolate that highlights the diversity of cacao and the craft behind tree-to-bar production. Wine and chocolate have more in common than you might expect. Both begin as fruit, rely on fermentation, and express the place where they are grown. Together, they can reveal surprising notes of fruit, flowers, spice, creaminess and depth.
