In Perugia, chocolate isn’t just a treat — it’s an identity, a centuries-old tradition that has shaped the city’s soul. This tasting offers an intimate journey into that legacy, born from a family whose love for chocolate has been passed down like a treasured recipe. This family began their journey decades ago, learning the true craft in historic factories where iconic Italian confections were first created. But when the pace of industrial production began to overshadow artisan methods, they chose a different path — to preserve the past. They opened their own chocolate workshop, committed to recreating the sweets they once crafted by hand. This chocolate tasting reflects that spirit of dedication. It is more than a menu — it is a tribute to a way of making chocolate that values time, detail, and purity. Your experience begins with a tasting of four hand-crafted pralines, each one a unique balance of flavor and technique. Whether filled with velvety hazelnut, infused with liqueurs, or layered with pistachio cream, every chocolate is made without artificial flavorings, using selected cocoa and traditional recipes nearly lost to time. You’ll then choose between two expressions of the same rich tradition: a cup of thick, velvety hot chocolate, crafted to Perugia’s signature style, or a scoop of artisanal gelato, made daily using fresh ingredients, low-fat methods, and recipes developed exclusively in-house. Either way, you’ll taste not only quality, but intention — a blend of innovation and deep respect for history. To complete your tasting, enjoy a cappuccino or espresso, paired with a selection of artisan biscuits. These are not mass-produced sweets, but homemade pastries baked fresh and chosen to complement the chocolate experience — delicate, nutty, buttery, and fragrant. Accompanied by still or sparkling water, this final touch refreshes the palate and lets each flavor linger just a little longer. The setting itself reflects the philosophy behind the experience: warm, elegant, and authentic. Some of the production areas are in view, offering a silent backdrop to your tasting — not as a performance, but as a natural part of the place. This is not a factory tour, nor a mass tasting event. It’s a seated, personal encounter with one of Perugia’s most authentic traditions, curated for those who want to understand chocolate not just with the palate, but with the heart. Whether you're a connoisseur, a curious traveler, or simply a lover of fine things, this tasting offers a pause — rich, generous, and unforgettable — in the city where Italian chocolate found its voice.
