All this week (Chocolate Week!), Artisan du Chocolate (89 Lower Sloane St, SW1W 8DA) will be holding free tutored min-tasting events in shop at 1pm and 6pm.

Londonist popped round yesterday with a few friends and we were more than pleased with the information and samples provided (we especially liked the green tea and the saffron chocolates).
