It is great to see a little factory produce such superior organic chocolate. The confections are the best ever and the bars are at the top of my list with some very creative flavors! The tour was fun and interesting. There is a fee, but look for 1/2 off coupons.

I've always loved chocolate but never realized all that goes into making it. This tour (about an hour) of the factory is educational and entertaining for all of the senses as you taste a variety of dark/milk chocolate from around the world throughout the tour. You'll get an understanding of what fair trade farming and organic growing methods entail and... More

Probably what you would expect for a small-factory chocolate tour in Seattle. It's a one-hour tour, with some samples of chocolate. There is a small fee ($6, I think). The tour is fun, and there are plenty of times during the day to schedule for it. The first half hour of the tour is a sit-down talk about how chocolate... More

Theo's offers a great tour - learn about chocolate, taste chocolate and buy outstanding chocolate at a reduced price...what is not to love! In particular, the salted caramels and ghost chilli were amazing.

Smelled like a dream come true and tasted like it too. You could try them all! I even bought a coco bean burlap bag for $2 to make a tote from when I get home

I loved how warm and welcoming the staff were, even to a group with five small children. They took extra time to show everybody where the sample containers were and were careful to point out that some of the chocolate was spicy. The chocolate flavors were amazing! I'm so glad we went.

Probably would have scored 5 if we could have taken the tour!! Delicious! Samples abound... hard to make a decision, but chocolate lovers, prepare to leave with a sizable bag of delicious treats!
