About
Askinosie
Askinosie is an artisan chocolate producer based in the United States. Operating as a bean-to-bar maker, the company oversees the processing of cacao beans from their raw state into finished products at their own facility. This approach allows for direct control over the technical production steps typically associated with small-batch chocolate creation.
The production style focuses on the inherent qualities of the origin of the beans. By maintaining a bean-to-bar model, the maker manages the transformation of cocoa solids, aiming for a profile that reflects the specific character of the harvests they source. The process emphasizes technical transparency throughout the transformation of the raw agricultural product.
Central to the operations of Askinosie is the reliance on direct trade practices. This model involves working directly with farmers to source cacao, bypassing traditional intermediate supply chains. By establishing these specific relationships, the maker seeks to foster clear communication and economic transparency with the cocoa growers who supply their beans.
