The World's Top Chocolate With Inclusions or Flavouring 2023

International Chocolate Awards 2023 - Bronze

With their new Brown Butter bar, Goodnow Farms delivers a rich and deeply comforting chocolate experience that’s anything but ordinary. At the heart of this bar is award-winning Berkshire Fresh butter from High Lawn Farm, made exclusively from milk of heritage Jersey cows. Goodnow browns the butter to perfection, coaxing out warm, nutty notes before blending it with their newest single origin cacao: Zorzal Communitario from the Dominican Republic.

This thoughtful pairing creates a chocolate that’s sweet, toasty, and irresistibly smooth, thanks to both the brown butter and the freshly-pressed single origin cocoa butter—a rare touch that Goodnow includes in every bar.

The Zorzal cacao brings subtle notes of cinnamon and raisin, which intertwine beautifully with the caramelized richness of the butter. The result is a decadently creamy bar with layers of flavor that unfold slowly, making each bite better than the last.

Tasting Notes: Cocoa, caramel, and toasted brown butter—a bar that tastes like home, only better.

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!

Keep in a cool, dry place, away from direct light and strong odors. Store at maximum
18 ° C in its original packaging

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.

To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.

On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
