Flavor wheels\, tasting notes\, and score sheets can help us describe chocolate. But they cannot tell the whole story of a cocoa bean.

Real understanding starts much earlier\; in cocoa-growing communities\, on farms\, in fermentaries\, in drying yards\, and with the people whose work shapes the beans before they reach a chocolate maker.

In this webinar\, David Greenwood-Haigh will explore sourcing intuition\; the practical knowledge that helps chocolate makers understand what they are truly looking for in cocoa.

He will also discuss how science and objective analysis\, including cut tests\, roast analysis\, and finished chocolate assessment\, can support better sourcing decisions.

You will learn:

Why flavor notes are only part of the cocoa story
How origin\, fermentation\, drying\, and people shape cocoa quality
What sourcing intuition means for chocolate makers
How data and craft can work together in cocoa sourcing

Who will benefit:

Chocolate makers and chocolatiers
Bean-to-bar makers
Cocoa buyers and sourcing teams
Cocoa producers and origin partners
Educators\, students\, and researchers
