Lisbon is known for its vibrant culture, stunning architecture, and now, for being the home of a hidden chocolate heaven – The Cacau Club. This secret online-shop and occasional physical store is a dream destination for chocolate lovers and anyone with a sweet tooth.

A chocolate lover’s dream come true

Founded by the passionate Rosario, who loves chocolates since her childhood, The Cacau Club is a journey into the world of artisan bean-to-bar chocolates. Occasionally, Rosario opens her charming shop in Lisbon, but the real secret is her personalized chocolate tastings, which we had the pleasure of experiencing a few weeks ago.

An unforgettable tasting experience

When entering the cozy tasting room, you’re welcomed into a world where chocolate is everywhere. Rosario, a very kind and knowledgeable host, introduces guests to her extensive chocolate collection. The highlight of our visit was the unique ‘tasting with colors’ session, where we expressed the flavors we tasted through colors on paper – a truly unique and sensory experience.

A library of chocolate delights

Despite its modest size, Rosario’s shop feels like a library of chocolates, offering a wide and exquisite variety. Each chocolate bar tells its own story, crafted with care and precision. It’s an ideal place to find that special Christmas gift or to indulge in some of the most unique chocolates the world has to offer.
