Maíz: the heart of Guatemalan Cuisine

More than an ingredient, maize is memory, nourishment, identity, and a living connection to Maya heritage.
In Guatemala, corn comes in beautiful shades of white, yellow, black, and purple, each reflecting the incredible diversity of seeds, landscapes, and traditions preserved through generations.

For the Mayas, maize is deeply connected to creation, community, and life itself.
This August 13, on the Day of Corn, we celebrate the grain at the heart of Guatemalan cuisine, and the people who continue to keep its story alive.

From seed to table, maize tells the story of Guatemala.

Long before modern kitchens, there was the mayan griding stone.

For thousands of years, this traditional stone tool has been used across Mesoamerica to grind corn into fresh masa. The rhythmic movement takes time, patience, and practice, turning a simple ingredient into the foundation of countless Guatemalan dishes.

Trying the metate is more than learning a cooking technique. It is experiencing a tradition that has connected generations through food, family, and culture.

During our cooking experiences, you will have the opportunity to grind corn by hand and discover the craftsmanship behind every tortilla and tamal.

Sometimes, the best way to understand a culture is to cook the way it has for centuries.

Before chocolate melts in your mouth, it begins here.

In your hand, this may look like a simple cacao bean. But it holds centuries of tradition, craftsmanship, and flavor.

Every chocolate bar starts with these beans. Their journey, from harvesting and fermentation to drying, roasting, and grinding, shapes the aromas, textures, and taste you experience in every bite. That's why great chocolate is never just about the recipe. It begins with exceptional cacao.

During our Bean-to-Bar experience, you won't just taste chocolate; you'll discover the story behind every bean and meet the people who keep this Guatemalan tradition alive.

Have you ever held a cacao bean before?

From field to table, Guatemalan tortillas are a story in every bite.

It starts with masa, made by grinding corn, sometimes white, sometimes yellow, or even blue, each variety giving its own flavor, texture, and color. Hands press, shape, and pat the dough into perfect circles, ready to cook on the comal.

Making tortillas by hand isn’t just cooking, it’s tradition, patience, and love passed down through generations. Every tortilla carries the heartbeat of Guatemala.
