Reviews: “My Favorite Thing in Costa Rica I've been in CR for almost 10 weeks now and this was by far my favorite experience yet! Today, I was fortunate to see and learn about chocolate making and it's impact in Costa Rica, Europe, and the rest of the world. From its inception among indigenous people to the dark delicious bars we see today, so much work goes into making just one piece. I am beyond thankful that I could visit botanica chocolate today and experience something so magical. My appreciation for chocolate making has gone up 10000% since today. Swipe to see: 1) Raw cacao seeds encased in pulp 2) Different prepared types of seeds 3) Ground and shelled cacao seeds 4) A very bitter chocolate drink with 100% cacao and no sugar, holy moly 5) The European way of drinking chocolate. Much less bitter 6) Chocolate mixing machine! 7) Real raw chocolate 8) We were able to make our own flavors of chocolate via taste test 9) The chocolate from the spinning bowl 10) Made my own chocolate heart!
