Welcome to Antton, Artisan Chocolatier in Espelette, a village renowned for its chili pepper.

All gourmets and the curious are invited to visit the production workshop in Espelette for free, and share the passion for chocolate through the work of the Chocolatiers.

A guide accompanies you on an educational, warm and gourmet journey !

THE VISIT IS DIVIDED IN TWO PARTS:

• Then, you enter the manufacturing workshop to discover the chocolatiers in the exercise of their art and you can easily exchange with them. The laboratory, with its decor with trompe l'oeil paintings, transports you into the warm atmosphere of a traditional Basque kitchen "La Cuisine d'Amatxi" (meaning grandmother's kitchen) .
