Follow Voyage Vixens Lanee and Lindsay on one of their international adventures.

In this episode, follow the Voyage Vixens as they visit a Solbeso distillery. Solbeso, which means “sun-kissed” in Spanish, is an exciting new venture in the drink world: it’s the first spirit made from the white, pulpy fruit inside a cacao pod, and it’s currently being produced in Peru and Ecuador. The traveling duo tour the distillery and farm to get the inside scoop on a personal tour by Fernando Crespo, distiller and owner of El Colibri cacao farm. Roughly an hour and a half south from the city of Guayaquil, Ecuador, here are the highlights from the visit with Crespo and his tasty and intoxicating crop.
