Think all dark chocolate tastes the same? Think again.
10am - 11.30am
Slow down and awaken your senses with a guided mindful chocolate tasting experience at the Ramsgate Through the Senses.
This workshop offers a moment of calm, curiosity, and connection through chocolate. Explore a selection of ethically-sourced, bean-to-bar dark chocolates, discovering just how diverse they can be. Taste the difference between bars made with cocoa beans from different origins, such as Peru and the DRC, and uncover how geography, climate, and craft shape flavour.
Through a mindful approach, you’ll engage all the senses - sight, sound, touch, smell, and taste - learning how to experience chocolate with intention. Along the way, discover the stories behind each bar, from cocoa origins to the makers who transform beans into something extraordinary. Whether you’re a curious beginner or a devoted chocolate lover, you’ll leave with a deeper appreciation of dark chocolate - and a whole new way of tasting it.
Come taste, compare, and savour the moment.
