DELICIOUS CHOCOLATE

Had a lovely time tasting chocolate and wine! Our tasting guides were knowledgeable and fun, and GOSH was the chocolate delicious. I was surprised to find I liked chocolate with olive oil in it, and was not surprised to find I liked the chocolate with rum in it! The wine pairings were perfect too. Ended up buying a chocolate bar with rosemary and narrowly, never thought to combine those before. I am terrible with names so unfortunately I can't remember the names of our guides, I want to say Melissa and John but I might be wrong. They were so nice! My friend brought her baby in and everyone was very sweet to her and accommodating. I'm from out of state but will return if I can!

What a great experience. Hiding in a collection of multiuse buildings the shop is remarkable. Our host Dave appreciates questions and will happily discuss chocolate from Cocoa trees and beans from around the world, to the levels of processing Dark to white chocolate. He loves sharing the details, the demonstration beans to product was great fun. The offerings of the artisanal candies are worth every penny. They are exquisite in flavor and design, pick what appeals to you, you will be rewarded. If you are looking for something to do when friends from out of town are visiting, include River Sea Chocolate!

A true haven for chocolate enthusiasts and an inspiring activity for anyone who wants to explore the fascinating history and art of fine chocolate! River Sea Chocolate reflects their commitment to quality, along with their connection to source. It is not just a culinary process but a labor of love and passion! Dave, our enthusiastic guide, skillfully presented five unique craft chocolates, complemented by fine wines, while sharing captivating stories about the history and process of chocolate-making. You're sure to leave filled with intoxicating cacao aromas, a more refined tasting palate, fine chocolate treats, and an abundant appreciation for the craft of chocolate making!

Dave was an excellent host, and all of the staff was very friendly and helpful. We learned so much about the chocolate-making process at River Sea Chocolates, and the product tasted so delicious. The wine pairings were also well chosen, carefully explained, and really brought out new flavors in the chocolate. Our minds and palettes were both blown (in a good way). I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who is a lover of chocolate and wine!

Such a fun experience! David was our guide for the chocolate and wine pairing, and was awesome! The chocolate was all delicious and unique, and the wine pairings were delightful. It was very interesting hearing from David about the bean to bar process and the work they do for conservation and the amazing cacao farms they work with. Would recommend to chocolate/wine lovers, or to anyone looking for a unique evening experience in the Chantilly area.
