Alaska Forager Series: Spruce Tip Dark Chocolate Bar: 78%

ALASKA FORAGER SERIES

Our Alaska Forager Series of chocolate bars integrates locally harvested Alaska ingredients into our chocolate products.  For this spruce tip dark chocolate bar, we handpicked spruce tips in the Spring here in Ketchikan, dehydrated them, made them into a powder, and then refined them with our Philippine Bon Bulak cacao into a 78% dark chocolate.

FLAVOR PROFILE

A well-balanced dark chocolate with a unique mild citrus and fruit note from the spruce tips. 

INGREDIENTS 

Organic Cacao Beans, Organic Cane Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Spruce Tips

ALLERGENS

While our equipment is cleaned often and every time after processing chocolate products with allergens, it is possible that our chocolate products may still contain trace amounts of dairy and tree nuts as all of our chocolate is manufactured on the same equipment.  Our chocolate products are soy and gluten free.

BEAN TO BAR

By "bean to bar" we mean that the final chocolate products we sell were transformed by us from unroasted cacao seeds (beans).  We carefully select, sort, roast, crack, winnow, grind, refine, and temper small batches of cacao beans from around the world into craft chocolate to explore the world of unique flavors that await.  Cacao is like coffee in that it is the seed of a fruit with very unique flavor profiles, which can be enhanced or diminished by how it is handled throughout the supply chain and ultimately by the roaster and chocolatier.  Our goal for the chocolate bar is to offer an expression of the cacao that highlights attributes that make it unique and special while at the same time being balanced and approachable.
