Food and geography are inextricably linked, so it’s no wonder that Mexico, which is home to mountain ranges, deserts, and an astounding 7,000 miles of coastline, also brims with an array of culinary traditions so diverse and delicious they made UNESCO’s Cultural Heritage list. And while you can plan a pilgrimage to Oaxaca for handmade tamales or venture deep into Baja’s Valle de Guadalupe to taste wines, there is an easier way to sample the bounty of regional dishes and drinks from across Mexico: the second annual Taste of Mexico, a month-long festival of cooking classes, tastings, and special culinary experiences held throughout the month of September at The Villa Group’s seven resorts in Los Cabos, Puerto Vallarta, and Riviera Nayarit.
