Chocolate & Nutrition. High % Fine Chocolate Tasting (Propaganda Coffee)

  • Propaganda Coffee 209 E Pender Street Vancouver, BC Canada (map)

The Experience:

Chocolate is often seen as a guilty pleasure, but can it be a healthy pleasure? You tell me! Come join us for an insightful tasting that will go through the process of how chocolate is made, and the various impacts the manufacturing has on the healthful elements of your chocolate. This info will be discussed as we taste our way through a flight of high percentage dark chocolate (75%-100%) and cacao. Many people fear dark chocolate, but in this tasting you will be surprised how pleasant many of them can be (including 90-10%).

This is a great tasting for those who love to learn about how their food is made, nutritional aspects (both facts and myths) of chocolate, and enjoy or want to take the plunge into high percentage bars. What is the impact of chocolate on our cardiovascular system? What foods limit chocolate’s benefits, and are there any downsides to chocolate consumption? Come and find out.

What’s included:

A flight of 10 single-origin dark chocolates which will include a few flavoured bars as well. No samples will contain dairy, nuts, or gluten, although I can’t guarantee no traces. You will also take home a tasting guide, flavour wheel keepsake, and discount code for your next online shop purchase.

What to bring:

Yourself! But also we request:

  • You come hungry/with an appetite for the best tasting experience, as being full dims our sense of flavour. Try and have a light meal beforehand, or plan a meal after the tasting if you can.

  • Please no strong perfumes or scents as this will interrupt yours and other’s ability to taste properly

Dietary requests:

All the chocolate samples will be dairy-free, gluten-free, and nut-free, although we cannot guarantee no traces. Please contact if you have any questions before booking. All chocolate is made with fine, ethically sourced cacao.
