- Overview: Step into the world of Colombian cacao with an immersive workshop in Medellín. You’ll connect with cacao in an interactive environment, exploring its flavours and traditions. Learn how cacao has been cultivated, processed, and enjoyed for centuries in Colombia. This hands-on experience allows you to roast, peel, grind, and refine cacao beans, taste 4–5 different cacao preparations, and ultimately create your own artisanal chocolate bar to take home, with the option to purchase additional bars you craft. - Why Travellers Choose This Experience: Unlike a standard factory tour, this workshop is fully interactive and takes you through every stage of cacao transformation. It’s an intimate, authentic way to discover Colombian traditions while creating something of your own. - What to Expect: Learn about the history and cultural importance of cacao in Colombia. Open a cacao pod and explore the beans in their natural state. Roast, peel, and grind cacao beans using both traditional and modern techniques. Taste 4–5 cacao-based preparations throughout the workshop. Temper and personalise your own chocolate bar with unique moulds and flavours (extra bars available at cost).
