Tasting Five origins chocolate
Just as with olive oil or wine, cocoa speaks of the place where it grows: some origins are fruitier, others more roasted, others floral or earthy. Tasting them one after another is the best way to understand it.
It is a tasting to do at home, unhurried, with a glass of water between bars.
Estepa, a town of confectioners
La Despensa de Palacio makes its sweets in Estepa, in the Seville countryside, a town whose name has been tied for centuries to confectioners’ workshops, toasted sugar and the scent of almonds drifting out of kitchens when the cold arrives.
That inherited craft shows in every piece: patient recipes, carefully made boxes and a way of seeing sweets as a small luxury to share.
How to enjoy Five origins chocolate
- A tasting with family or friends.
- With speciality coffee.
- With a sweet wine or an aged rum.
It works wonderfully as an after-dinner plan: the five bars are shared out, everyone picks a favourite and the conversation takes care of itself. With speciality coffee or a glass of aged rum, the tasting becomes a small celebration.
The five 90 g bars
The five bars form a set designed as a gift for real chocolate lovers. They are best kept somewhere cool and dry, away from heat and strong smells.
