We are excited to release the video trailer for our Food of the Gods: Spirits of Agave Session! Take a look below!

The Spirits of Agave: Fermented Drinks Session

In our Oaxacan market classroom, guests are invited to taste the pre-Hispanic flavours of the agave (or maguey) plant. We journey into the world of myth and into the past through this tasting that includes three unique, fermented ceremonial agave drinks. Join us and discover how these ancient drinks have changed over time, have informed the indigenous character of Mexican people, and how these delicious drinks are informed by and inform understandings of time, the moon, ceremony, blood, milk, gods, sacrifice, and elderhood.

Thursdays from 4-6pm in Oaxaca's Centro Historico
