Expand your chocolate palate via a guided virtual chocolate experience with a flight of five single-origin chocolate bars.

This delicious and informative class will introduce you to the skill of fine-chocolate tasting—the specialized techniques, flavors to look for, and tailored vocabulary. Throughout a lively, interactive Zoom session facilitated by a chocolate pro, you'll taste your way through a flight of five distinctive chocolate bars. You'll learn how to perceive chocolate, identify flavor families, and understand how flavors are developed. We’ll share best practices and discuss types of flavors we often find in finished chocolate. You’ll put your newfound knowledge to the test as you savor chocolate from Colombia, Dominican Republic, Tanzania, Sierra Leone, and Ecuador.

We’ll end by sharing tips on how to improve your chocolate-tasting palate. We believe there are no expert chocolate tasters; only experienced chocolate tasters!
