Whetstone Chocolates Tasting Tour, St. Augustine

We had the best time on this tour! Definitely worth the money. Our guide, Joe, was surprisingly funny and entertaining the whole time. We had a 14yr old girl, 9 year old boy myself and husband, and we all thought it was great. Book on advance, it fills up quickly and usually sells out each day. You get to go inside the factory and learn the history of the family and of chocolate. Tastings include about 5 different flavors.

We took the tour yesterday and our guide, Joe, was fantastic. The humor was dry and corny and he poked fun at the tour group in perfect dad joke fashion. The tour alone was a 5/5 but then when you actually taste the artisan chocolate, it elevates it even further. I wish I could rate it higher. The tasting squares are great for gifts or even just the slight chocolate craving and the shells are great for some interesting flavor combinations. For the shells I would recommend the key lime and the dark chocolate orange. For the tasting squares, the Sebastian is great if you want a healthy 80% cacao dark chocolate, but it is an acquired taste. But the absolute winner is the De Leon. It is the perfect blend of that dark chocolate taste and sweetness. I cannot recommend this store enough. A must visit in St Augustine!
