Highline Bar-Dominican Republic; Bean-to-Bar

Bean-to-Bar chocolate bar; Belize.  Along the Animas River corridor, the “Highline” is considered the most dramatic, the pinnacle, of the canyon.  Thus, the pinnacle of ACC chocolate is our Bean-to-Bar Highline Bars.  Incorporating only single origin premium cacao and organic pure cane sugar, this is the truly the chocolate lover’s chocolate.  Simple ingredients allow the chocolate lover to truly experience all the flavor that cacao can truly have; each bar having it’s own, distinct flavor profile and tasting notes.  Made bean-to-bar in our cafe at 920 Main Avenue, Durango, the process is open to view by the public.  We invite you to join us, ask questions, and try some chocolate!

Using an award winning cacao, this bar is well balanced and consistent .  Grown in the Duarte province in the Dominican Republic, this bar has a gentle smoothness with notes of brown sugar and cherry.  The Öko Caribe producer network farms are scattered across the Duarte province. Characterized by fertile, clay loam soils and lush tropical rainforest, Duarte and the surrounding region of El Cibao are where the majority of cacao is produced in the Dominican Republic. 

All of our bean-to-bar chocolate is made in small batches and handcrafted on-site.  At ACC, we like to rotate the bean origin of our bean-to-bar chocolate bars. This rotate lets you experience different bean origins which yield different flavor notes, cocoa butter content and terroir.  This creates and interesting and diverse experience for chocolate lovers and a great introduction to fine chocolate for those that have not yet experienced it!
