From our monthly introduction to fine chocolate tastings, to large scale events for blue-chip clients, we run a whole range of tastings and events to suit all levels.

Whether its straightforward chocolate appreciation or matching chocolate with wine, whisky, rum or almost anything else, we have a tasting for you.

For Chocolate Week 2009,   Seventypercent.com focuses on fine chocolate made in countries that grow cacao, on new weird an wonderful drink, food and chocolate matches and also announces its new Origin Chocolate Destination partnership with a boutique hotel in Ilfracombe.

Most chocolate we eat is made in the developed world from commodity beans grown in the tropics. Now cacao producing countries are fighting back, and in a series of tastings with Melt Chocolates of Notting Hill, Seventypercent will feature Pacari from Ecuador and Santander from Colombia in Chocolate Week.

Wine, rum, beer – they’ve all been matched with chocolate, but how far can you go? Seventypercent takes things to the limits with some amazing results in a joint fine chocolate and farmhouse cheese matching with South Kensington cheese emporium La Cave à Fromage.

Fine chocolate in the UK can be a bit London biased, so in a mission to take the origin chocolate message all around the UK, Seventypercent are announcing in Chocolate Week a new partnership with family-friendly Ilfracombe boutique hotel, The Elmfield. Offering gourmet standard food, The Elmfield is an excellent location to start our first Origin Chocolate Destination, with sampling and menu specials during Chocolate Week and our first Origin Chocolate Weekend coming soon.
