Chocolate with Cocoa from a Single Origin

Single Origin chocolate is made from cocoa beans acquired from the same origin in the world. Also referred to as single estate, mono origin or single plantation, single origin chocolate encapsulates cocoa’s natural secondary flavor profiles. Depending on the region’s soil, surrounding vegetation, weather patterns, and processing, cocoa can have completely different flavor notes depending on their origin. All cocoa beans are grown within ~20° of the Equator, in an area known as the “Cocoa Belt” (seen right).
