Discover the world of fine-flavour chocolate.
A fine chocolate tasting is a stylish and innovative way to celebrate that special occasion, motivate or reward your team, or simply learn the skill of tasting and identifying fine chocolate.
CORPORATE & PRIVATE EVENTS
If you have ever been to a fine wine tasting then you will know just what to expect from a craft chocolate tasting. Fine chocolate is, after all, the new wine. Getting together to learn how to taste, by sampling some of the world’s finest craft chocolate, is an innovative, educational and fun experience. If you are planning a team gathering, hen party, that special anniversary or you just want to get together with colleagues, friends or family, a fine chocolate tasting experience could be just what you are looking for.
Sessions can be based on an in person or online Cocoa Encounters Discovery Experience or tailored to your needs.
