Tea & Chocolate Pairing
+ Learn More & Pricing
$79CAD (14 Piece)
Including 2 pure teas
~ 75 minutes
In my opinion, there is no better companion to fine chocolate than fine tea. This tasting we will enjoy a range of fine chocolate along with two fine looseleaf teas (such as white, green, oolong, pu-erh, fermented, black). These teas are unflavoured, which means the beautiful aromas come from the tea leaves themselves not from other ingredients or extracts added.
The goal of this tasting is to enjoy the chocolates and how they interact with the teas. We will also discuss the underappreciated nuances of unflavoured chocolate and tea and how profound the flavours themselves can be due to processing.
Kit Includes: 6 types of fine chocolate in duplicate (12 samples total), two fine teas (let me know when you book if you have a preference), informative handout, simple preparation instructions, virtual session info. Guests are required to have hot water to prepare tea.
Virtual Session: Hosted by Geoseph. Interactive, fun, educational, and includes music, images/videos, and time for questions.
If you have preference of teas, feel free to let me know in the notes section when you book.
Coffee & Chocolate Pairing
+ Learn More & Pricing
$89CAD (14 Piece)
Including 2 coffees
~ 75 minutes
Like coffee, chocolate used to be consumed only as a drink! However, today coffee is seen as more sophistcated than chocolate. This tasting will give equal appreciate to both, and explore the ways in which they interact when enjoyed together.
The coffees are instant, so easy to prepare. They are also decafienated, so can be enjoyed by all. Keep in mind, this is not your average instant or decaf coffee, as the unique origins and roasts offer an excellent range of flavour profiles.
The goal of this tasting is to enjoy the chocolates and how they interact with the different flavour profiles of the coffee. We will also discuss the underappreciated nuances of unflavoured chocolate and tea and how profound the flavours themselves can be due to processing.
