  SINGLE VARIETY, SINGLE SOURCE

  We know our growers by name, Original Beans know their cacao growers with the same familiarity. They seek out rare, heirloom and overlooked varieties of cacao. They source direct from independent growers and co-operatives in some of the world's most diverse ecosystems and give back to the land, communities and wildlife through their own conservation projects.

  BEAN TO BAR

  Original Beans couvertures contain only raw cane sugar and organic milk powder - no vanilla extract, no soya lecithin. Each variety is roasted, conched and set according to its own unique characteristics. The consistency of the process guarantees a reliable, highly workable ingredient for your kitchen.
