From top to bottom: Michel Cluizel, Pierre Marcolini, Debauve & Gallais, Fabrice Gillotte, and Servant
In January we invited four colleagues, Richard Nahem, Eric Fraudeau, Yetunde Oshodi, and Sir Robyn Blaber to participate in our annual product tasting. We tasted five ganaches, each made from Venezuelan chocolate by a different artisanal chocolate maker.
The chocolate maker whose ganache scored the highest mark was Fabrice Gillotte, edging out Pierre Marcolini by a narrow margin.
Congratulations, Fabrice Gillotte! His chocolates can be purchased in Paris at Mococha, our favorite chocolate shop on rue Mouffetard.
Full details of the tasting can be found in the February edition of our newsletter, Paris Insights. It is published monthly as a downloadable PDF file and is available only to paid subscribers for an annual subscription fee of $30.
