HISTORY "FROM GOLD" BEHIND THE PRODUCT

Cuba that even when it hurts, laughs and dances! The Cuba of Ernesto Che Guevara and Fidel Castro. The Cuba of the Avant Garde movement was greeted with enthusiasm in poetry and literature when the conservatism of other countries imposed a culture that was suffocatingly trapped and stagnant.

It is precisely this mosaic of different elements that compose the philosophy of the genuine Cuban who, in order to overcome his sadness, dances the "son", the forerunner of salsa, rumba and mambo. And between the dances, he tastes the local cuisine that is an alloy of Spain and the Caribbean paradise. This cuisine, in its standard version, includes black beans with rice, pork with onions, fried banana chips, tropical fruits and many, many, many spices! Garlic, cumin, oregano and laurel dominate Cuban dishes. Of course, you will wait patiently for them to be prepared and you will see them served all together, at the same time!
