BRAZIL 43%

$12.00

BRONZE AWARD-WINNING BAR

Brazilian cocoa is associated with bitterness, tartness, and powerful tannins once roasted. It can awaken sensations of infused black tea, or the scent of driftwood warming in the sun. The milk adds a quiet and yet bewitching force.


Smell the chocolate. Break a small piece and let it melt under your tongue. Allow time for the chocolate to release its aroma. Enjoy. Repeat.

Our single origin chocolate is sourced from one country, one region, and even one single Cocoa farm.

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?

Manoel Libânio da Silva Filho created his company in 1922. At eight plantations, spanning 6,700 acres, this giant is an example of successful sustainable development. Rainforest Alliance Certified, they produce high quality cocoa with exemplary respect for the old-growth forests that surround them, and agricultural practices to match. Valrhona, a tireless pioneer of the CSR approach, has been sourcing from the estate for twenty-odd years, and signed a long-term partnership with them in 2013.
