Simón Coll Chocolate Space — Attraction in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia

Did this with my family and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The tour itself is fairly simple, it's a video in a nice presentation room, with a great history of chocolate making, an overview of the classic chocolate making process and antique chocolate making equipment on one side of the room, and then youre shown more modern equipment and processes. Then, there was an interactive hands on part which involved tasting different types of chocolate as well as examining (and tasting) chocolate from various parts of the production process. During the tour and session, you'll eat or try several small samples that are different, tasty, but also relevant to the discussion and explanation.

Then you go to the shop, which was basically an enormous selection of different types of very high quality chocolate and was laid out with a surprising variety of free samples. Everyone in my family ended up eating way too much chocolate, so a little self control is suggested. My kids enjoyed it, I learned something and I ate lots of yummy of chocolate, what more...

We went at the chocolate factory during our visit to the Cava city. We hadn't booked any tour. But Irene who was at the reception warmly welcomed us and went the extra mile by giving us privately(!!!) the story of the Simón Coll family and the way of the Chocolatery to the top! From chocolate bean to chocolate bar! She even gave us a private chocolate tasting! What a personality Irene have! She loves her job and the company! Well informed with big smiles and a human warmth. By the way, chocolates are of a world class. If in Sant Sadurni highly recommend to take a tour at the Simón Coll...

Was there for the Wine Festival in Sant Sarduni (Sunday) - and there was a massive crowd in this choc factory. Despite this the very few staff who could converse in weak English took great efforts to point excitedly to us of the only english tour at 3PM. 5Euros per person, with complimentary chocolate tasting at the end of the tour. Chocolates are really lovely, as with the chocolate tins with the artistic labels of 'Barcelona'. Great souvenirs...
