Bean to Bar Chocolate Making and Tasting Tour
Overview
No other experience in Bend lets you travel the globe through chocolate. The chocolate experts guide you through the entire bean to bar journey, from how we source directly from small farms to the small-batch roasting techniques that preserve each origin's distinct character. Be welcomed with a mug of house-made hot cocoa, then explore the global cocoa story told by the people who live it every day. Learn how soil, climate, and region shape every bar, from fruity Peruvian beans to earthy Indonesian cacao. Then take the craft into your own hands and pour your own bar from warm, liquid single-origin chocolate to take home. Close with a guided tasting flight of the award-winning lineup — comparing the terroir of multiple cacao-growing regions side by side, just as a sommelier would explore fine wines. Taste the world's finest single-origin cacao in one sitting, then shop the full collection at guest-exclusive pricing.
