Single Origin Chocolate
Single origin chocolate is the real connoisseur's chocolate, for this is the cocoa equivalent of a single malt whisky or a grand cru wine. Single origin chocolate, or pure origin chocolate as it is sometimes referred to, is so called because the cocoa beans used to create this specialist chocolate are taken from a single source/origin, in some cases a single estate. Only the finest Trintario and Criollo cocoa beans are used, from the best cocoa producing plantations around the world, and so creating the finest tasting chocolate you will ever experience with real depth, increased flavours and unique characters. This is real chocolate in its purest and finest form.
