Overview

Every country has a storey - Panama tells hers through flavour.

This experience was born from our love for those hidden tastes locals grow up with but travellers rarely find.

Your host opens her home to share 32 of Panama’s most beloved bites and sips, connecting each one to a region, a ritual, or a memory.

It’s not just a tasting, it’s a cultural map told through food.

You’ll experience how ingredients, traditions, and people blend into the country’s identity, and leave with stories and flavours that stay with you long after you return home.
