Origins & Collaboration

Origin & Craftsmanship
This limited-release bar combines single-origin Ucayali cacao from Peru with dried green Sichuan pepper, expertly sourced through a collaboration with spice curator 50 Hertz. The herbal signature of the Ucayali chocolate beautifully interlaces with the pine, floral, and citrus characteristics of the pepper—making each bar a creative and thoughtfully sourced union of terroir and tingle.

Flavor Profile
Expect an intriguing sensory journey: vibrant waves of pine, rosemary, floral, and herbaceous notes followed by a mouthwatering rush of lemon. This is paired with a cooling, electric-tingle sensation—a subtle buzz that mirrors Sichuan pepper’s numbing quality—adding a novel dimension to the chocolate experience.

Accolades & Awards
This bar has been honored with a Silver at the Academy of Chocolate Awards (2023), spotlighting its bold innovation and refined execution.

Tasting & Pairing Guide

Allow the bar to rest on your tongue and feel the initial burst of herbal aroma and lemony brightness followed by the distinctive Sichuan tingle. For a smoky complement, enjoy it with a smooth single-malt whiskey that echoes the pine and citrus tones. Alternatively, pair it with an herbal tea such as rosemary or lemongrass to highlight its botanical layers. For an adventurous food pairing, try a slice of aged Manchego cheese—the savory nutiness and acidity beautifully balance the herbal, tangy chocolate.

Summary

The Herbaceous Green Sichuan Pepper 70% bar is an adventurous and elegant confection—bold in flavor, tactile in sensation, and rooted in thoughtful sourcing. Its bright herbal complexity and unique tingling finish make it an exciting pick for curious chocolate lovers and flavor innovators alike.

Like coffee beans and wine grapes, different cacao beans have different flavors. By using beans sourced from only one farm or region we’re able to highlight the distinct flavor characteristics of that particular bean. Discovering those flavors is one of the joys of making (and eating) single-origin craft chocolate!

To make excellent chocolate we need to start with excellent beans. We’ve traveled throughout Latin America searching for the most flavorful beans, and have direct relationships with the farmers who grow and harvest them. By dealing directly with farmers we’re able to ensure we always receive the very best beans, which in many cases are fermented and dried to our custom specifications. Our direct trade model also allows us to pay significantly more than commodity or Fair Trade prices, and ensure that farming practices are sustainable and labor practices are equitable.

All of our chocolate is made at our 225 year old farm in Sudbury, Massachusetts. We start with cacao beans and sugar, and perform every step of the chocolate making process in-house, including carefully hand wrapping each bar. We’re also one of the only chocolate makers to use our own freshly pressed, single origin cocoa butter in our chocolate. Doing this is time consuming and difficult, but the result is exceptionally smooth and intensely flavorful chocolate.

We believe that great craft chocolate is “true to the bean,” – that the flavors apparent in the bar reflect the flavors hidden in the bean. We invite you to explore our website to learn more about the many steps involved in truly realizing the full flavor potential of single-origin chocolate cacao, from personal sourcing to painstakingly roasting, pressing cocoa butter, conching and more. What you discover will change the way you think about chocolate!

Unsere Schokoladenhersteller verzichten in ihren Produkten stolz auf den Einsatz künstlicher Stabilisatoren oder Konservierungsmittel, wodurch ihre Kreationen im Vergleich zu anderer Premium-Schokolade temperaturempfindlicher sind.

Um ein optimales Geschmackserlebnis zu gewährleisten, empfiehlt es sich, unsere Pralinen an einem kühlen, trockenen Ort bei einer Temperatur zwischen 16 °C und 18 °C aufzubewahren. Bitte vermeiden Sie es, unsere Pralinen im Kühlschrank aufzubewahren, da dies aufgrund der erhöhten Luftfeuchtigkeit zur Zuckerkristallisation führen kann, was ihre Textur und ihren Geschmack verändern kann.

Im Gegenteil: Bei zu hohen Temperaturen kann sich die Kakaobutter trennen und einen weißen Film auf der Oberfläche der Schokolade bilden. Dieser Verlust an Kakaobutter kann dazu führen, dass die Schokolade austrocknet und sich infolgedessen der Geschmack verändert. Durch eine sorgfältige Lagerung können Sie die Integrität unserer köstlichen Schokolade bewahren.
