Top Micro-Batch – Plain/Origin Dark Chocolate Bars 2024

International Chocolate Awards - Bronze

This exquisite chocolate bar is a true testament to the dedication and craftsmanship of the Q’eqchi Maya farmers of San Juan Chivite, Guatemala. At Goodnow Farm, we work closely with these farmers, who harvest cacao fruit from wild trees surrounding their village, then ferment and dry their beans at two facilities they’ve built within the community. This careful control over the fermentation and drying process ensures the beans’ exceptional quality.

During an early visit to San Juan Chivite, the farmers shared that their old facilities were limiting their ability to produce high-quality cacao, prompting us to step in and help fund the construction of an updated fermentation and drying facility. This upgrade allowed the association to expand from ten to over thirty farmers, yet we continue to source beans exclusively from the original ten. This custom harvest ensures we receive beans with the distinctive flavors we seek, representing the best of their land and community.

What sets this chocolate apart is our use of freshly pressed Asochivite cocoa butter, giving the bar its exceptional smoothness and deep, single-origin flavor. As one of the few chocolate makers in the country who presses our own cocoa butter, we’re able to preserve the purity of flavor, allowing each bite to reflect the unique profile of the cacao from San Juan Chivite.

Crafted with care and a focus on quality, this chocolate is a celebration of the partnership between Goodnow Farm and the hardworking farmers of San Juan Chivite. Taste the difference of a truly exceptional single-origin bar, and explore more about our sourcing journey and chocolate-making process on our website.

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!

Cacao Beans, Organic Sugar, Fresh Pressed Cocoa Butter

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.
