Visit Enrico Rizzi's Chocolate Factory, located in the heart of Milan, just minutes away from Piazza del Duomo, and uncover the secrets of a handcrafted "bean-to-bar" workshop. Here, exceptional cocoa beans are transformed into chocolate, starting from roasting all the way to the final bar. The journey begins in the sensory room, where advanced “Virtual Reality 360” technology offers an immersive and captivating experience. Explore a Peruvian cacao plantation and witness the harvesting, fermentation, and drying of cocoa beans. The tour continues through the roasting room and the "chocoteca," a climate-controlled space where chocolate rests and matures with spices, teas, and infusions. Finally, in the laboratory area, visitors can watch the cocoa bean transformation process—from shell separation to slow stone grinding. The experience concludes with a guided tasting of three to five grand cru chocolates. Depending on the ticket purchased, guests will enjoy different types of tastings. The tour lasts approximately 60 minutes, with a maximum of 8 guests per visit. English tours: Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday at 4 PM / Saturday at 12 PM.
This experience was super fun, informative, and well worth the price. I learned so much about how chocolate is made and how cacao is grown. We got to try lots of different chocolate and even got a discount on any we wanted to buy afterward. We had an absolute blast.
We had a lovely time. We learned to smell, taste and even listen to the breaking of the chocolate. The tour was truly special, fun and a educational experience!
Beautiful experience. Small place, it's more of a workshop than a factory, but if you are 7/8 people, the visit is exclusive. Qualified staff. A must-try, especially with children
A journey into the aromas and scents of cocoa and beyond. Truly a beautiful experience
Splendid experience. It is very interesting to learn about the process through which chocolate becomes what we know. Respect for tradition and great care in producing it, as well as in the hospitality and the explanations provided during the visit. I am sorry I do not know the name of the guide who accompanied me today on this beautiful one-on-one experience. The 3D plantation visit is just one of the gems.
Interesting experience, clear explanations and great chocolate
I was really impressed by the Milan Chocolate Factory! The environment is very welcoming, Fulvio was kind and available to explain every stage of the processing. The chocolate is of high quality: intense scent and a great variety of products. An experience that I absolutely recommend to those who love chocolate or want to make a special gift!
Very nice and passionate tour. And a world-class tasting. Here you will be educated in everything about cocoa and how handicrafting works.
I knew this world only as a layman. The guided path that takes you from the jute bag to the tablet is illuminating thanks to Enrico’s team who passionately tells his work. In the end the tasting of 5 bars, accompanied by a glass of sherry, also gratified the palate!
Immersive and enlightening experience on the world of chocolate. Enrico and his collaborators are able to guide you in quality and excellence
Wonderful place to discover from the birth of chocolate from the plantation to the actual production where they make you taste different types of chocolate really good
It was a total experience , taste and sensations, you feel immersed in the place, discover the chocolate from the origin and the tasting of various chocolates combined with the different rums is amazing. Highly recommended gift for those who love chocolate and more...
Beautiful experience , great professionalism attention to detail, very good products .. I must say I am satisfied.
I attended several presentations by Enrico Rizzi and they were all unique and interesting. The quality of the raw materials he uses is excellent and, during presentations, Enrico is always very courteous and available to explain his creations. I would say that chocolate, macarons and ice cream are always a pleasant surprise!!!
Immersive and very interesting experience I learned a lot about the world of Italian chocolate production we were pampered with tastings and kindness by super professional people I recommend everyone to try it!
Spectacular!! We did a guided tour starting with a 3D viewer video of a cocoa plantation , we all saw processing and tasted 5 different types of chocolate. Recommended absolutely!
Beautiful experience. Fulvio was an excellent host. I took part in the chocolate and rum tasting. Hyper curated location, top quality products, very successful combinations. Congratulations!
very welcoming place, very friendly staff, explain everything in detail. I recommend it to everyone, not only to those who love chocolate!
An experience that I recommend to all chocolate lovers. As soon as you set foot in the workshop you are enveloped in cocoa notes ... a tour that made me appreciate even more the processing of these beans so magical!
It was already known that Enrico was a great chocolate expert, but he always manages to surpass himself, through a constant search for improvement and excellence. The birth of the Chocolate Factory has now taken it to the next level. The lived experience is unique; a place where even before entering you are struck by the aroma and smell of chocolate that pervades you. Inside machines that peel the cocoa beans, chop them, roast them and then transform them into that brown liquid with an unmistakable taste. The tour continues with the vision of the plantations where beans are born and ends with the tasting of different types of chocolate! That's crazy! Congratulations Enrico!
Extraordinary experience to enjoy quality chocolate! A must for chocolate lovers. Even the environment with attention to detail.
Local well cared for in every detail. Unique experience Thanks also to the well-prepared and helpful staff for every need. The best chocolate factory in Milan!!!!
Beautiful experience. Enrico Rizzi's professionalism and passion are always a guarantee of excellence, both in the choice of the highest quality raw materials and in the attention to detail of this unique and immersive journey into the world of chocolate.
Enrico Rizzi is definitely the King of Chocolate, and he proves it in every brilliant activity. The Chocolate Factory is one of its best initiatives and is a sensory journey that takes you "inside" chocolate, from seed to bar. Unique and advisable experience.
A journey into the world of chocolate! Immersive experience with 3D viewers and guided tour. The final tasting with explanation: excellent!
A 100% immersive and unforgettable experience to discover the birth of Chocolate. As soon as I arrived I felt fin knows immediately the smell of chocolate in the whole environment, what a magnificent feeling! It was very interesting to be able to go around the whole factory, the final treat was the tasting of the chocolates, I did not think they were so good and intense. It is one of those experiences that I recommend!
A fantastic experience to discover how chocolate is really born, an everyday food that we often take for granted, but that can take on many different nuances. We start with an immersive video with viewers on a cocoa plantation in Peru, then we tour the chocolate factory with explanations of how the various stages of processing take place. Last but not least, the visit ends with a tasting of locally made chocolates. The best thing? The smell of chocolate that greets you as soon as you pass the front door...
