Chocolate Tasting Party Kit
Oliver Kita has created a unique Chocolate Tasting Party Kit. What a great new and interesting way to enjoy an evening or afternoon with family and friends, tasting various gourmet single origin chocolates. It is also the perfect hostess gift and a great ice-breaker. All of us who work with Oliver have had so much fun with this kit — and we've learned a lot about chocolates that even we didn't know.

Inside the kit you'll find:
• Chocolates to taste from four different countries; each in three different percentages (total 48 tasting squares of chocolate)
• A sampling of single origin ganach bon bons, which are a pretty lavish treat for chocolate connoisseurs (total 16 bon bons)
• "How to taste chocolate"
• Four (4) tasting score cards so everyone can play!

Dominican Republic labelThe island with the highest elevation in the West Indies produces "Trinitario" cocoa beans from very old plantations.
