Cacao Tasting with Danielle Nicholas

Step into the rich and flavorful world of cacao.

Join Danielle Nicholas for an immersive midday tasting experience celebrating the depth, complexity, and story of Theobroma cacao — the food of the gods.

What to expect:

  • Taste the world. Sample a curated selection of 100% pure cacaos sourced from distinct geographic origins, each with its own unique flavor profile. No sugar, no additives — this is cacao in its most honest form. As Danielle likes to say: this ain't your Hershey's bar.

  • Learn the journey. Explore the bean-to-bar story of cacao — from genetics and growing regions to the hands of the farmers and chocolate makers who bring it to life.

  • Connect through flavor. As Wendell Berry famously wrote, "eating is an agricultural act." This tasting is an invitation to slow down, sharpen your senses, and discover how much a single bite can reveal about a place, a people, and a practice.

This is more than a tasting — it's a chance to step outside your routine, explore new flavors, and connect with others in a way that feels approachable and genuinely fun.

Reserve your spot today. Registration closes May 27th.

Important Health Note: Pure cacao can be contraindicated for those taking antidepressants or blood pressure medication, or who are pregnant or breastfeeding. If any of these apply to you, please consult your physician before attending. If you or your doctor have questions about dosage or the experience, reach out directly to Danielle at danielle@daniellenicholas.com.

Scholarships available for those who may need it. Just reach out.
