“The best way to experience the power and pleasure of chocolate is to taste its history.”

” Crafting bonbons is not just a sweet treat, but it’s like weaving my affections and memories into each delicate piece.”

Tequila Tasting, Chocolate Pairing, and Cocktails – what is not to love? A delicious combination of chocolate tasting, tequila tasting, and Melt’s original cocktails.

Tequila and Chocolate share many similarities, both originate in Mexico and Latin America, both are at their best when produced in an  “artisanal” way, and both share the importance of their “terroir”. For both Chocolate and Tequila – fermentation is key for creating the flavour and complexity – which is why they make such good pairings.

Summary:

Chocolate has been on an incredible journey from a “gift of the Gods” to a modern chocolate bar. We want you to experience that journey by tasting chocolate from the wild Amazon and the best single-origin estates. Melt wants people to learn about the chocolate revolution and how to put the chocolate back on its spiritual pedestal. Think of a fine wine – like a Chateau Lafite and that gives you an idea of what the best chocolate taste like – not the Ribena that most of us drink.

We want you to celebrate this amazing civilization – with chocolate, tequila, and great cocktails. Mexico has a rich history of cocktails with Tequila and Margaritas.

But Tequila, or the Spirit of Latin America, is so much more than a base for cocktails. Taste and learn about Tequila as a local.  Learn the difference between Blue and White Agave and Mezqual. Melt has developed three new cocktails of our own -which feature in a new Cocktail book. The Pisco Passion, the Melt Margarita, and the Aztec Revenge. We will teach you how to make these amazing cocktails in the heart of Notting Hill, one of the world’s great urban environments. Join us on our passion with chocolate, and tequila and celebrate this rich Aztec civilization with two new and unique Cocktails – which you will love.
