Goodnow Farms roasts and winnows the same fine flavor Ecuador nibs they use in their multiple award-winning Esmeraldas bar, then soak them in over 50 bottles of Lawley's Rum. This allows the complex flavors to thoroughly infuse the nibs before they carefully dry them and put them into the stone grinders. The addition of their fresh pressed, single origin Esmeraldas cocoa butter ensures this chocolate is intensely flavorful and exceptionally smooth. The sweet molasses and caramel notes of the rum combine perfectly with the berry jam flavors of the single origin Esmeraldas cacao to create a delicious mix of chocolate and rum flavor.
