Your Travel Experience with Finest Journeys
Free Morning and Mezcal & Tacos Tasting Experience
Enjoy a free day in Mexico City at your own pace. In the late afternoon, take part in a taco and mezcal tasting experience. Tacos are one of the most recognized dishes in Mexican cuisine. This activity offers a chance to try a variety of styles made with corn or flour tortillas, filled with pork, beef, fish, or vegetarian options, with or without cheese. Each version reflects different regional methods and ingredients. You will visit several traditional taquerias that are known for their consistency and local following. These stops offer a range of preparations that highlight how tacos vary by area and preference. Alongside the food, a guided mezcal tasting will introduce you to this traditional Mexican spirit made from agave. A mezcal specialist will explain the characteristics of each variety, including differences in flavor that may be smoky, herbal, earthy, or slightly sweet. Each sample reflects a specific origin and production method. This experience offers a clear overview of two essential parts of Mexican food culture. Both the tacos and the mezcal are presented with context by people who understand their background and preparation, making it an informative and enjoyable way to end the day.
