Immerse yourself in a unique sensory experience where you will discover the surprising pairing of Spanish craft beer and premium chocolate. Over the course of approximately two hours, you will enjoy a guided tasting session designed to awaken your senses and transform the way you enjoy both products.
You will taste 4 styles of Spanish craft beers, carefully selected for their quality and character, each paired with a premium chocolate bonbon from Cacao Sampaka, a renowned Barcelona brand specialising in high-quality cocoa.
Throughout the experience, we will explore the history of beer, its main ingredients, and its evolution up to the current craft beer scene in Spain. We won't just talk about them: you'll taste 8 key ingredients to understand how they influence the aroma, flavour, and texture of each beer.
You will learn how beer is made, from the selection of ingredients to fermentation, and you will discover the proper way to serve it to bring out its best qualities. I will teach you how to taste beer professionally, which senses are involved in the experience, how we identify basic tastes, and how we actually perceive flavour in our mouths.
Each beer will be strategically paired with a different chocolate, so you can experience how cocoa, sweetness, acidity, or bitterness can completely transform your perception of a beer. You will understand why the pairing of beer and chocolate can be even more versatile and surprising than other traditional pairings.
The experience is led by The Beer Xpert, a certified Beer Sommelier, in an intimate, dynamic, and participatory atmosphere, perfect for both beer enthusiasts and those looking to discover this world from the ground up.
It's not just a tasting. It's an educational, sensory, and gourmet experience that will allow you to develop your judgement, awaken your senses, and enjoy beer and chocolate in a completely new way.
