Chocolate Noise is a woman-owned social enterprise that curates unique experiences around craft chocolate. We host virtual and in-person chocolate tastings for private events and corporate clients, featuring ethically sourced chocolate from innovative bean-to-bar makers around the world. Our chocolate sommeliers will help you explore the flavors and terroir of craft chocolate in an inclusive, exuberant, and socially conscious format.

Virtual Chocolate Tastings

Our signature virtual chocolate tastings include a live one-hour guided chocolate tasting led by a chocolate sommelier. Each guest receives 4 artisanal chocolate bars (enough for 2-3 people!) made with transparently traded cocoa beans from our favorite award-winning chocolate makers. Our wine and tea pairings take the experience to the next level with beverages from the most illustrious artisan makers in the country.

All guests also receive a welcome letter and tasting mat to help explore their bars. We’re happy to accommodate dietary restrictions and source chocolate for international guests.

Starting at $89.00 per person


In-Person Chocolate Tastings in NYC

In these fun-filled in-person tastings, you’ll learn about the steps to get from bean to beautifully wrapped bar and how makers tease out flavors that reflect the regions where the beans were grown. We’ll talk about the tasting notes in three unique bars, much the way you would in a fine wine tasting. Speaking of wine, we also offer beverage pairings to match the gorgeous chocolate bars. Our chocolate sommeliers can come right your office or venue of choice (we’ll bring the goodies!) or for groups of 35 or fewer, we’d love to host you in our Chelsea, NYC location - where we can offer specialty tea pairings as well.

Starting at $79.00 per person

The West Coast has good taste, literally: It’s home to so many specialty food companies we love. Taste our favorite chocolate bars at our in-person events in the Bay Area, and take it up a notch with wine pairings to boot. Guests will also go home with a hard-to-find drinking chocolate from a local maker to enjoy as a midnight beverage! Our chocolate sommeliers bring everything to your office, or, if you’d prefer, we can host you in our San Francisco event space.
