Jeuh kieh a jm hm kahun will leave you with the aroma of an ancient tradition, one that finds its source in the Chinantla rivers in the north of Oaxaca state, in the community of San Felipe Usila. It tells the legend of a pre-Hispanic recipe that lives on thanks to the deep-rooted symbolism it holds for the Gachupín Velasco family, who have fought to preserve, reinvent, and share it so as to continue savoring their most cherished tradition.
