On Valentines Day February the 14th please join us at Plenty to enliven your taste buds with salt and chocolate tastings!
You’ve heard of wine and cheese tastings, but what about a salt tasting?
Salt has been harvested by humans since at least at least 6000 BC! Food and salt have been inseparable ever since. Salt tastings are a fun and easy way to explore the surprisingly wide taste spectrum of salt. And what better combination is there for salt than chocolate? So we’ll also be sampling some wonderful organic chocolate from Taza, Soma, Organic Fair, and Blanx Art!
The organic BlanxArt bars arrived yesterday after an absence for several months as I had to find a new supplier – they are back, as fantastic as ever, and at a great price! They melt on the tongue like rich pudding. Click here to read about some of the other chocolate that we feature.
Here is part of a KokoBuzz review of the Blanx Art 70% Organic Dark Chocolate Bar:
AROMA: Muted pear, hay, banana.
INITIAL IMPRESSIONS: Faint lemon and apple notes slowly open up.
MIDDLE TASTE: Avocado, lemon, apple, lightly toasted bread, milk.
FINISH: Butter, vanilla, wax beans, faint coffee-milk, apple, pear, and marshmallow at the very end.
TEXTURE: A bit chewy and pliable at first, then melts to smoothness.
Drop in for the tastings, we are open on Sundays from 11 – 4.
