This chocolate is proof that happy unions are indeed possible for all who strive for them. The strongly-flavored, you could say, macho, cacao bean and the more subtle and resilient character of the organic, non-fat milk powder get along so well that it’s a true pleasure to have them over to the house. The beans are grown in the Cibao region of Duarte Province, Dominican Republic, whereas, the milk comes from a dairy in Petaluma, which is located in Sonoma County, California. It would seem an unlikely match, but ... it works beautifully. Their marriage took place and continues to be celebrated in our very own studio with the hope of bringing joy to both friends and family. Enjoy!

How small and interconnected is our world! Deep in the Kilombero Valley of the Morogoro region in Tanzania, there is a village called Mbingu, meaning “heaven” in the Kiswahili language. The beans from heaven are shipped to America. Closer to home, from our own, beautiful Vermont, pure maple sugar also makes its way across the country to California. Here, in our studio, an important meeting takes place between the beans, the maple sugar and our chocolatemakers. The result is: Goodwill, fairness, understanding, and the joy of good taste. May the spirit of this chocolate bring harmony to our world.

Writer V.S. Naipaul once wrote of his native Trinidad: "The cacao woods were like the woods of fairy-tales, dark and shadowed, and cool. The cacao-pods, hanging by thick short stems, were like wax fruit in brilliant green and yellow and red-crimson and purple." The setting in which the cacao of Gran Couva's Montserrat Hills is cultivated conveys magic and beauty, both. Rooted in the rich soil of the region, cacao trees flourish beneath the orange-flowering canopy of monstrous, 'flaming' Immortelle trees. One taste of this chocolate's delicate flavors and you will feel like you are living "happily ever after."
