In Tlacolula de Matamoros, we'll discover pan de cazuela, a soft and aromatic bread with cinnamon, and try nieves with unique flavors like mole and grasshoppers. We'll also enjoy a buffet of typical Oaxacan food, celebrating the diversity of local ingredients and techniques. In Teotitlán del Valle
We're heading to Rey de Matatlán, an artisanal mezcal factory. We'll learn about the production process, from the agave to the final distillate, and we'll taste different varieties guided by master mezcal makers who honor the land at every step. And finally, at the iconic Mercado 20 de Noviembre in Oaxaca City, where the aromas, colors, and flavors remind us that Oaxacan cuisine is much more than food: it's legacy, identity, and celebration.
