XOXOLAT Chocolate Tasting 101
Did you know that cacao beans only grow within 20° of the equator? Or, like fine grapes, different beans from different plantations processed by different manufacturers have very different flavour profiles?
Participants will learn the many facets of chocolate, from the bean to the bar, and taste samples of different beans, origins, manufacturers, and percentages of cocoa. And … As we believe that chocolate goes with everything, you will taste some of the our bestselling blended bars, such as our Maple caramelized Bacon with Espresso, Lavender, Sea Salt & Triple Peppercorns, Sour Cherry with Chili, and a sumptuous shot of Drinking Chocolate.

This year, our community charity partner is The Street Store, a rent-free, premises-free, free pop-up clothing store for the homeless, to be hosted in Vancouver’s Downtown Eastside on December 17th. In the spirit of giving, we encourage winter social attendees to support this great cause by bringing donations of new and lightly-used clothings and socks.
