High bidder will receive a gift certificate good for a Chocolate Tasting for 8 at Alegio Chocolate in Palo Alto.  

In the 90-minute tour, you'll taste the pure flavor of cacao thanks to Claudio Crallo, an Italian-born agronomist who has made it his mission to produce the worlds's best chocolate - and he thinks he's succeeded.  Claudio lives and grows his cocoa on the tiny island of Sao Tome e Principe - west of wquatorial Africa - and he ships his single estate-grown organic chocolate directly and exclusively to Alegio Chocolate, his store in Palo Alto.
