Tasting #1:
Explore the diversity of a single origin. We’ll sample five 70% bars, all from the same country (and possibly the same plantation), but crafted by five different chocolate makers. Discover how each maker’s techniques and style transform the same source into distinctly unique chocolates.

Tasting #2: 
Experience the signature style of a master chocolatier. This flight features five bars from five different origins, all made by one exceptional chocolate maker. By tasting their creations side by side, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of their craftsmanship and distinctive approach.

This promises to be a fascinating and delicious evening—don’t miss it!

The Santa Monica Chocolate Society is a club of sorts that celebrates and savors the finest, rarest, most delicious chocolates on Earth.

Once a month, we gather to taste regional bean-to-bar chocolates and explore everything chocolate, often with a guest speaker ranging from cacao farmers to craft chocolate makers themselves.

Led by The Gourmandise School chocolate expert Ruth Kennison, the group is inspired by her many adventures across the equatorial “chocolate belt” and her work with craft chocolate makers. Ruth shares whatever’s fresh and exciting from her wonder cabinet of carefully curated bars and bonbons at each gathering. Interested in more? Check out our blog posts for tips and resources for buying craft and baking chocolates.

HAPPY PRESIDENTS DAY!

Taste award-winning bars and vote on your own favorites.
There are many awards in the craft chocolate world—gold, silver, bronze, and more—each recognizing excellence in flavor, craftsmanship, and innovation. However, awards can also be controversial, as many competitions aren’t judged blind, and chocolate makers often have to pay substantial fees to participate. Ruth Kennison, the fearless leader of the Santa Monica Chocolate Society will bring in a selection of bars that have won awards. As you explore this intriguing topic you will dive into their flavor profiles, learn about their origins, and decide for yourself if they live up to the accolades. Cast your vote to crown the group’s favorite and weigh in on what makes a bar truly award-worthy!

The Santa Monica Chocolate Society is a club of sorts that celebrates and savors the finest, rarest, most delicious chocolates on Earth.

Once a month, we gather to taste regional bean-to-bar chocolates and explore everything chocolate, often with a guest speaker ranging from cacao farmers to craft chocolate makers themselves.

Led by The Gourmandise School chocolate expert Ruth Kennison, the group is inspired by her many adventures across the equatorial “chocolate belt” and her work with craft chocolate makers. Ruth shares whatever’s fresh and exciting from her wonder cabinet of carefully curated bars and bonbons at each gathering. Interested in more? Check out our blog posts for tips and resources for buying craft and baking chocolates.
