The Nordic Bean to Bar Craft Chocolate Movement -Guided Tasting

Gourmet foodies, here’s your chance to taste and explore some of the best chocolate bars from the most award-winning local makers! Bean-to-bar craft chocolate isn’t just for Christmas or Valentine’s Day -you can share the love any time. All you need is a little knowledge about how to taste it and what makes chocolate fine. At this tasting event, you’ll learn the art of sensorial chocolate tasting and discover some of the finest chocolates in the Nordic region (mostly Norway). Cacao and chocolate are not just one flavour. Like wine, cacao has over 600 naturally occurring aroma compounds. Its taste is determined by where the cacao beans come from, how they’re grown, processed, and combined —and often enhanced with local spices. This guided tasting, led by a certified taster, offers a unique opportunity to explore the incredible range of flavours found in single-origin chocolate. We’ll also learn how to identify and savour quality chocolate made from fine-flavour cacao beans.
