HOW IT'S MADE

The everyday magic of taking cacao and turning it into delicious chocolate bars starts with the careful selection of ingredients. Our single origin cacao beans come largely from farms in the Dominican Republic and Ghana. Once they make their way to Nashville, Tennessee, the fun begins. 

SOUTHERN ARTISAN CHOCOLATE ®

We believe that the best tasting chocolate is made by not only thoughtfully selecting ingredients, but by creating a process that enhances every flavor. That’s why we roast long and slow, grind our nibs for days in an old fashioned melanger, and work in small batches that are handled by makers who are passionate about what they do. This combination of traditional stone grinding and European techniques is what we’ve been doing since day one. Why do we do it that way? Well, because that’s what works best.
