Highlights
Rock is a journey to the origin. A whisper of Oaxacan land that invites you to walk among ancient caves, where time left traces in stone and silence. It's learning to look at maguey as living history. Recognize your ways, your secrets, your patience. It is the fire lit under the ground, the slow transformation of the agave into a ritual that smells of smoke, tradition, waiting. A bake that you don't just observe... feels. It's the first sip of mezcal: deep, honest, ancestral. A language that reveals itself on the palate and connects with something older than words. And at the end, the table. An author's dinner that seeks not to impress, but to narrate. Every dish, a story. Every taste, a territory. Rock is not a tour. It's a return to earth. To the fire. To the essentials.

Itinerary
The journey begins with a visit to Yagul, where we will walk among ancient vestiges that narrate the birth of agriculture in Oaxaca and the deep bond between man and maguey. Here we will learn to recognize different species of agave and the history that each keeps.
The next part will be given in the palanque of the Mezcal Artesanal Noble Coyote in Mitla, where we will be welcomed with a welcome cocktail and traditional snacks. Master Don Valeriano Monterosa, who has more than 40 years of experience in the production of mezcal, will take us hand in hand through the ancestral processes that transform the agave into a unique spirit: where we will light a fire to live an agave bake and know the processes of grinding, fermentation and distillation. We will continue with a guided mezcal tasting of six carefully selected expressions, where we will explore aromas, flavors and traditions. In the evening, we will enjoy a signature meal looking at the mountains surrounding Mitla. The evening culminates with one of the most symbolic moments of the Mezcalero process: we will witness the traditional agave oven cover. An ancient ritual marked by fire, earth and patience.

About Oaxaca City
Oaxaca City is the colonial capital of Oaxaca state, a stone-built highland city of markets, mole, mezcal and Zapotec ruins nearby.
Oaxaca de Juárez sits in a high valley at about 1,500 metres, its centre built of pale green stone around a shaded zócalo. The baroque church of Santo Domingo, with its gilded interior, and the attached former convent, now a cultural museum, are the grandest sights. Streets run with market stalls, painted walls and courtyard cafés, and the historic centre is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
