David Gambill opened his organic, handmade chocolate shoppe in Sebastopol 17 years ago. David is focused on sourcing from environmentally friendly and fair-trade growers/producers that exemplify the Slow Food movement. He will talk to us about the history of chocolate, the sourcing and varieties of chocolate, the nuances in flavor, and of course, we will taste some of his amazing chocolate!
We will be tasting 5-6 chocolates from makers around the world including two chocolates that Sonoma Chocolatiers makes in-house. All the chocolate will be dark and include two truffles (Yum!). All the chocolates we taste are made with ethically sourced Cacao from small farmholders.
The United States is the second largest consumer of chocolate after Switzerland, and Americans consume 2.8 billion pounds of chocolate annually. Let’s meet to learn more about one of our favorite foods!
