A Chocolate Tasting Trip To The Rainforest by Cocoa Encounters – Lincolnshire, United Kingdom
February 1 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm
£25
FINE CHOCOLATE DEEP-DIVE
The evening will take you on a deep-dive tasting through the tropical rainforests of the cacao growing continents. We will begin with a tasting of chocolate from the Upper Amazon, the origin of the Theobroma Cacao tree, then travel over the Andes, through Ecuador to Central America to the cacao enjoyed by the Maya and Aztec cultures. We then follow cacao to Venezuela and on to Asia and ultimately to Africa. We will be guided through our flight tasting and the history of cacao by Kathryn Laverack and we will finish with artisan coffee from Soul Foods.
Tasting fine chocolate is an experience best shared. Not only does this session teach you to practice the art of slow tasting and to get the full flavour experience from your chocolate, it also offers a great opportunity to discover new makers and share your flavour discoveries with others.
Tickets include a guided tasting of dark and flavoured craft chocolates (all non-diary) accompanied by a Soul Foods artisan coffee.
