"Flor Heras is a third-generation chocolatier and co-owner of Rito Chocolateria, the shop and chocolate company her family founded years ago. Today, Heras is pushing her art even further with Reina Negra, a new sub-brand of obsessively sourced bean-to-bar chocolate that you can sample and purchase at the Rito storefront. Situated across from one of the busiest markets in town, the shop sells packaged chocolate as well as agua de chocolate, fruit-filled pastries, and other ready-to-eat treats. It’s also where Heras holds small workshops where visitors can learn everything about chocolate, from the raw ingredients to the process to its history and cultural significance to the Oaxacan people.

"A cacao-focused chocolate shop run by a third-generation chocolatier that ferments, roasts, and processes beans in the traditional way from start to finish, producing rich hot (or cold) chocolates, an exceptional chocolate ice cream, and packaged cacao products like bars and jarred moles to take home. The experience emphasizes ancestral chocolate-making techniques and offers deeply flavorful, terroir-driven cacao products." - María Ítaka
"An artisanal chocolatería producing solid chocolate discs used to make traditional Oaxacan hot chocolate; their stone-ground chocolate is intended for home preparation of the foamy, spiced drink." - Shava Cueva
