Inspirational Cuisine

Flavors, ingredients and color is what makes Oaxaca cuisine special.  From many versions of moles to chapulines, tamales and mezcal, Oaxaca dining is a special event.  On this Rascal + Thorn culinary insights tour we will explore all of foods in the region.

All meals and drinks in the itinerary will be included.

Unique Excursions

Excursions in Oaxaca include market visits, cooking workshops, indigenous crafts and many other historical visits.  The area is known for its variety of activities and opportunities for hands-on experiences.

We will work with local chefs and food industry personnel to enjoy excursions that are focused on the local cuisine and product.

Mezcal

As Mezcal becomes more popular for cocktails in the United States, the production of craft Mezcals has become an important part of the local Oaxacan industry.  We will make visits to several of these different artisans to understand how their process is different from the mass-produced product.

Included will be tastings and cocktail workshops using Mezcal as the base spirit.
