Festival of the Dead

THE MEXICAN GASTRONOMIC RITUAL

At Los Danzantes, Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead) is not a date, but an ancestral ritual that spans generations. Each year, we light the candles of our ‘ofrenda’ (altar offering) with the conviction that memory must be nourished, and that the aromas of maize, cacao, and mezcal are bridges inviting our ancestors to share the table one last time.
