$10.00

Feel a wave of flavor rising in your mouth. Its white flower and jasmine crest. The swell foaming with lush, floral hints. This unprecedented combination of Belizean cacao + milk + Tahitian vanilla is enough to convert dark chocolate fans.

SINGLE ORIGIN CHOCOLATE

Single origin chocolate is chocolate made from just one variety of cacao bean, grown in one region. Our single origin chocolate is sourced from one country, one region, and even one single plantation. Like fine wine or cheese, each cocoa plant has its roots; an origin that gives it its typicality. A taste that connoisseurs -- you, soon! -- work to identify with pleasure. Have you ever heard of terroir?

THE PLANTATION

Xibun River Estate, in the middle of which stands a Mayan archaeological site, is located in the center of Belize. The land is fertile, watered, and -- although not certified -- does not receive any herbicides or pesticides. The cocoa trees arrived from Trinidad, Costa Rica and Ecuador in the 1970s and were left to decay at the beginning of the 21st century. But since 2014, Valrhona has helped to rehabilitate the plantation and restore its Belizean richness. Visit the plantation.

The best chocolate ever
Truly a sensory sensation. Melts on the tongue to silky perfection. My favorite is Ecuador with its subtly spicy undertones. Highly recommended.

Chocolate on a new and higher level.
This is the best chocolate that I have ever tasted. This is chocolate on a new plain of existence. We did a formal tasting of the different chocolates. We followed the rules and breathed and "tasted" the chocolates, taking time to savor each piece. We used the order that the information in the box recommended. The chocolate is delicious. Each piece really does have a distinctive flavor. You can really tell the difference if you take them in order; from the dark chocolate to the milk chocolate. Yum. We really did enjoy the tasting. There is a big difference between tasting and eating. And having the background of where each was produced, added to the enjoyment. We also commend you on your commitment to the environment and to supporting the workers who grow the beans. It is an honor to be one of the first in the U.S. to try your new chocolate delights. Congratulations.

Unique quality
These chocolates are a true gourmet experience. From the initial bite to the slow melting in the mouth, it is a complex and rewarding experience. I personally love the Mexico chocolate, powerful but bright, not sugary at all. I would also recommend the exceptional Ecuador bar. A very special opportunity to discover what chocolate can be, a must try.
