Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate is renowned for its meticulous bean-to-bar chocolate-making process. The 75% Brazil, Fazenda Camboa bar is crafted using cacao beans sourced exclusively from Fazenda Camboa, a single estate in Brazil. This chocolate bar embodies a distinct flavor profile that captures the essence of the region's terroir, with a complex taste experience that includes notes of rich dark chocolate, hints of fruitiness, and a subtle nuttiness.
Each bar is carefully crafted to highlight the unique characteristics of the Brazilian cacao, ensuring a high-quality, artisanal product.
About Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate
Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate, based in Eureka, California, was founded by Adam Dick and Dustin Taylor in 2010. They use organic, fairly traded cacao and organic cane sugar, opting to exclude additives like vanilla and extra cocoa butter to highlight the natural flavors of the cacao.
Their factory is notable for its small batch production that emphasizes detailed craftsmanship and high-quality ingredients. Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate is well-regarded for their single-origin bars and inclusion bars, which often combine unique flavors like figs or fleur de sel.
The company is committed to direct trade practices, ensuring they source the finest ingredients while supporting sustainable farming practices. Their new factory in Old Town Eureka, located on the waterfront, marks an expansion aimed at increasing efficiency in all areas of their business, including customer tours and product storage.
This move aligns with their goal to offer more educational classes and tastings, further engaging their community and visitors?.
