Melquiadez Code: A Central American Cultural Experience

Description

Join us for Melquiadez Code: A Central American Cultural Experience, an intimate evening inspired by the world of One Hundred Years of Solitude and the stories, flavors, traditions, and rhythms of Latin America.

This isn't just dinner. And it isn't just a coffee tasting.

It's an invitation to slow down, gather around the table and experience Central America through the senses.

YOUR TICKET INCLUDES

A Journey Through Central American Coffee

Discover some of the finest specialty coffees from Costa Rica, Nicaragua, and Panama through a guided tasting celebrating the extraordinary flavors, producers, and coffee-growing traditions of Central America.

Every guest will receive a complimentary bag of our limited-edition Melquiadez Code Anniversary Blend to take home and savor.

A Central American Cafetal Dinner

Inspired by the breakfasts served across Central America and the food traditions surrounding coffee-growing communities, we'll gather around the table for a full meal featuring gallo pinto, pupusas, and other Central American flavors.

Decoding Macondo

We'll open a conversation inspired by Gabriel García Márquez's One Hundred Years of Solitude and its Netflix adaptation exploring memory, family, identity, culture, magical realism, and the stories we inherit.

We encourage you to watch the Netflix series before joining us, but it is absolutely not required.

Tropical Dance Experience

After dinner and conversation, we'll get out of our chairs. Enjoy an approachable introduction to tropical Latin dance followed by music, social dancing, and time to simply enjoy the evening together.
