About
Dick Taylor
Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate emerged from a background in boat building and woodworking, bringing an artisan's attention to detail into the world of cacao. Based in the United States, they operate as a dedicated bean-to-bar maker. This small-batch approach allows them to oversee every step of the transformation from raw, fermented cacao bean to the finished, elegantly wrapped bar.
The sensory experience of their chocolate is defined by a deep respect for the intrinsic characteristics of the origin. They focus on precise roasting and refining techniques that highlight the unique flavor notes of the specific cacao varieties they select. The resulting bars offer a nuanced mouthfeel and a clarity of flavor that bridges the gap between traditional chocolate profiles and the vibrant, fruit-forward expressions often found in specialty craft chocolate.
Commitment to quality extends beyond the processing room into their sourcing philosophy. The company maintains direct trade relationships with farmers, ensuring a transparent supply chain that prioritizes the livelihoods of those growing the cacao. By utilizing organic-certified ingredients, they uphold high standards for environmental stewardship, reflecting a holistic approach to the creation of every bar.
