Vaca Negra

If you have a friend or family member that’s a foodie, Puerto Rico’s Vaca Negra can be the perfect gift idea. Vaca Negra was founded by Wanda Otero, a licensed microbiologist that turned to the business world in 2008 with her experimental cheeses. All of the brand’s products are artisanal made from the best raw milk of the dairy farms in the region of Hatillo. The municipality is actually known as the dairy capital of Puerto Rico for the quality of its milk (and also because it is said to have a higher cow population than humans!). Vaca Negra has been flourishing ever since, being recognized locally and internationally. You can order their cheeses, butters, sweets, and yogurts online with shipping within Puerto Rico and to the states.

Luca

Luca is a lifestyle brand. You may say, what does that mean? Well the brand offers a uniquely curated selection of items from home décor to jewelry, apparel, oils, perfumes, and bags that it creates an overall life style and vibe. Definitely with Luca, there is a boho-chic element to the items the owner, Laura Lugo, selects. The brand’s focus is “beautiful objects that stand the test of time.” This is a great store for gift ideas for someone that has this type of “minimal with a statement piece” style in both their home décor and clothing.

Obed Gómez

The Puerto Rican contemporary artist, Obde Gómez, is a very talented painter that showcases his pieces online via Etsy! As you can see above, his paintings focus on Boricua Afro-culture, like the dance of the Bomba, rendered in beautiful, vibrant oil painting colors. He touches on other cultural aspects of Puerto Rico, like Taíno indigenous culture, religious themes like the 3 Wise Men, and Spanish heritage themes like the literary character of Don Quixote. If you or a loved one is an art aficionado, browse this talented artist’s repertoire. He not only sells his original artwork but also prints, tote bags, home décor, and clothing.
