Miss Vickie Posted December 31, 2012 #2 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Anyone done the factory tour?http://www.agapey.com/barbadostours.html How was the chocolate? Do you get samples before you buy? We are signed up for March & hoping we have enough people so they will do the tour Any info We were among the first to enjoy this tour, last January, and I highly recommend it. Here's a link to the tripadvisor reviews. My husband's and my reviews are on their somewhere, but you'll note that they are all good reviews. http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g147263-d2397768-Reviews-Agapey_Chocolate_Factory_Tour-Bridgetown_Saint_Michael_Parish_Barbados.html It's small and personal - one room, you talk to the owner/chocolatier and his assistant. You get to taste cocoa samples, sugar samples and chocolate samples. It's actually very educational. The chocolate is delicious. At the time he actually wasn't selling any chocolate at the factory, however you can buy it (and bags of the sugar used in the chocolate) at Best of Barbados in the cruise ship terminal, and the 4 of us bought them out!

I had wished he was doing it then. And if you're coffee drinkers, make sure to pick up a bag of the sugar - it's much ear better than the white sugar you buy at the grocery. We aren't coffee drinkers, and my stash is still in my pantry :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
