Big news for those of us who love to end the day with a square (or seven..) of dark chocolate and a big glass of red! Taza Chocolate is going to be at Wine Riot: Night of the Bubbles, giving out free samples of chocolate and helping you pair those samples with the 250 wines you'll be tasting.
The next time you find yourself on the couch after a long day at work, you'll know exactly what wine goes great with the Guajillo Chili Chocolate Mexicano or your go-to 70% Stone Ground Dark Chocolate Bar.
Did You Know??
Taza makes their chocolate right in their Somerville factory! They start with raw, whole cacao beans, roast and winnow the beans, grind and refine the nibs, temper and mold the chocolate, and cool, wrap and ship out the finished bars. (I didn't know Willy Wonka lived right down the street!) They call this process "bean to bar."
Taza is serious about sustainability! The company crafts a product that is environmentally sustainable. Read more about how they strive to be green every day.
Taza was founded after cofounder Alex Whitmore traveled to Oaxaca to steep himself in the history and culture of Mexico. There, he was compelled by the minimal processing and traditional method of stone grinding the beans… so much so that he was moved to start a business dedicated to crafting artisan, Mexican-style chocolate in the United States.
