Chocolate Tasting: Exploring
Chocolate From Around The World |
 Theobroma cacao, or “food of the gods”
is the botanical name for the tree that gives us that favorite of
all
confections, chocolate. Be a god, and explore the many facets of
chocolate flavor in a tasting of fine dark
chocolates from around the world. We will learn to distinguish the
flavor characteristics of different cocoa
origins and will taste differences resulting from differences in
processing. We will learn about chocolate
production and the science behind making fine chocolates.
