Dive deep into Botany of Chocolate with this ‘taste test’ that includes:

The fascinating world of chocolate and its journey from cacao pod to finished bar. Discover the botanical, biological, and chemical processes behind this beloved treat. From growing and harvesting cacao to fermentation, roasting, and chocolate making. Along the way, explore a variety of chocolate samples and learn how origin, processing, and cacao content influence flavor. Then, put your senses to work with a guided chocolate tasting as we taste, compare, and savor the unique characteristics of each sample.
