Summary: We came for a chocolate tasting and got delicious chocolate PLUS an eye-opening education. We were delighted to learn about their forest preserving practices and sailship cargo delivery! The fact that chocolates from different countries have different flavors was amazing, too. Thank you for the yummy experience!
