The Flavor School uses food to explore history, culture, and the way we eat. Book a guided chocolate tasting for your group, or bring a custom talk to your class, team, or community.
Private chocolate tastings
A guided tasting that slows everyone down: where cacao grows, how bean becomes bar, and how to taste what makes each chocolate different. We bring everything to your home or office, so you can relax and enjoy it.
Talks and workshops for your group
Engaging presentations that connect what we eat to history, literature, faith, economics, and science. Each one is built around your audience, from a homeschool co-op to a college classroom to an adult community group.
