Whisky expert, regular panelist on BBC Radio 4’s The Kitchen Cabinet, and author of Chasing the Dram: Finding the Spirit of Whisky, Rachel McCormack has teamed up with us to create a whisky and craft chocolate monthly subscription service.
Kristy Leissle, chocolate scholar and founder of the Cocoapreneurship Institute of Ghana, will be joining us on the 25th of January from 6:00-7:30pm UK time to bust some of the myths surrounding West African chocolate.
Join us for another Craft Chocolate weekend at Canopy Market from Friday the 10th until Sunday 12th of December. Following the sell out of all the events at our takeover in October, we will once again be hosting an array of tastings and festive workshops.
Experience a virtual chocolate tasting from the comfort of your own home. Taste a unique selection of craft chocolates as you discover the story behind each bar, travel through the history of chocolate and delve into the socioeconomic impact of chocolate. This is the perfect event for the chocolate lovers in your life.
Chocolate has more varieties of flavour, taste and texture than just about any other foodstuff or drink (including wine) on the planet. So we’ve designed a craft chocolate tasting that has both universal appeal and provides a unique way to both have fun, while also learning about flavour, how to taste and to understand your own palate.
Subscribe and receive four small-batch, single-estate craft chocolate bars each month through your letterbox, wherever you are in the world.
Annalisa Barbieri, celebrated columnist and Chocolate Correspondent for The Observer, has chosen these five bars as a great introduction to Craft Chocolate. Try them for yourself and see if you agree!
Find your perfect chocolate match with the Cocoa Runners Taste Test. Just say yes, no or not sure to a bunch of food and drink related questions and we’ll propose some bars we hope you’ll love. And find out if you are “Classic and creamy”, “Green and wild”,
“Spicy and sophisticated” … and a whole lot more!
The Virtual Tasting evening is a brilliant, informative, fun and delicious way to spend an evening during lockdown! Spencer is not only incredibly knowledgeable but also amusing and engaging via Zoom, and the chocolate is superb (and plentiful). I've got a totally new take on chocolate and am looking forward to trying more.
I've had a subscription with Cocoa Runners for over two years now and am loving it. Yes, it's absolutely risky because you'll develop an expensive taste for chocolate. But also you will learn to enjoy it modestly and never binge on low quality chocolate again.
So, do it for your mental and physical health. (-: (And, for the healthier and more sustainable supply chain + planet.)
OMG. Virtual tastings are THE BEST. What a fantastic way to spend quality time with a great bunch of people, to learn the fascinating behind-the-scenes background on chocolate and to discover some amazing new flavours and textures. THANK YOU
Great selection of varied craft chocolate from round the world. I've enjoyed learning so much from your selection, detailed write-ups on companies' practices, and loved attending a virtual tasting. So much fun! Thanks for the great work in changing the chocolate industry for the better.
The true chocolate lover's trade secret.
Our new favourite subscription service.
Cocoa Runners is any chocolate lover's dream company.
