We were in Basel for a day before we embarked on our river cruise on the Rhine River. We booked this chocolate tasting to learn more about chocolate and do something in our short time in Basel. The owner/operator of the chocolate tasting was friendly and very informed about the science about cocoa bean and the chocolate making process. We were able to try many different chocolates made from cocoa beans from around the world. This was a great experience. He also told us how to properly store chocolate to ensure the best tasting experiences. We also booked the cheese tasting which was also provided by the same operator in the same location. If you are going to do the chocolate tasting, book the cheese tasting as well. One bird, two stones. Both were great experiences and worth the money and time.
Great Experience
