Review:
Located in Seattle’s Fremont neighborhood not far from downtown, the Theo Chocolate Tour is the place where you can learn what happens to beans from Africa and Central America before they become chocolate.
When you tour the factory, you’ll definitely have the opportunity to taste some of the best chocolate in the world, and you’ll also learn about fair trade, the lifestyle of the bean farmers, and the ways in which the Theo Chocolate Factory is changing their lives.
The first part of the factory tour will explain how founder Joe Whinney pioneered fair trade practices in the US and what he does to ensure that all beans he uses to make his chocolate are purely organic.
The tour provides fascinating information, and the chocolate you will sample is simply divine. You will also visit their Confection Kitchen, where chocolatiers get to play with ingredients like caramel, marshmallows, and various kinds of chocolate, all of which are used to develop fresh new creations.
