Dark Chocolate Tasting
Jessi Ambrose
Sat Jan 31, 08-10:00pm, Walker Memorial
Enrollment limited: first come, first served
Limited to 40 participants.
Single session event
Prereq: none
Fee: 10.00 for the cost of chocolate and other event supplies.
Chocolate tastings are similar to wine tastings: we sample a range of chocolates and learn to appreciate their individual textures and tastes. You'd be surprised at the fruity, nutty, or spicy undertones that aren't the result of added flavorings but rather the growing region and processing of the chocolate!
In this event, we sample 12 different dark chocolates over three tasting "flights." Some information about chocolate-making and where to buy good chocolate will also be provided.
Advance sign-up NOT allowed; show up early!
