The discs are available in 70% pure chocolate plus nine divine assorted flavors such as: Salted Almond, Chipotle Chili, Cinnamon, and Vanilla. And do we ever love that texture and taste! How to describe them? They are not too sweet and the flavor just develops and intensifies while you are chewing. The Mexicana Discs are 100% stone ground, with pieces of cacao and crystals of sugar remaining in the finished chocolate product, thus giving it that unique texture. As members of a Direct Trade program, they source high quality cacao beans and compensate farmers fairly for their work. The company philosophy is sustainability – financially, environmentally, and socially. Their first batch of chocolate was made in Alex's kitchen.īased in Somerville, Massachusetts, Taza Chocolates has moved from Alex's kitchen to a full–fledged chocolate producing factory. Once back home in the US, he started to perfect the chocolate recipes and it wasn't long before he and co-founder Larry Slotnick, in 2006, started Taza Chocolates.
He learned to hand–carve the granite millstones that are used to grind the cacao beans into the trademark features of the finished product − rustic chocolate that bursts with bold flavor and texture. While travelling through Oaxaca, Mexico in 2005, Alex tasted Mexican stone ground chocolate and it was "love at first bite." He was so enamored with its earthy, intense cacao flavor and gritty texture that he decided to start his own chocolate factory which would be based on artisan, Mexican–style chocolate traditions. Taza Chocolate was the brainchild of co–founder Alex Whitmore. They have a gritty texture that is the result of the special process used during processing. The Mexicano Discs are an entirely different taste sensation. They are not like the creamy smooth chocolate that we are accustomed to eating. It's no secret − we love chocolate and think it should have its own food group category on the UDSA Food Pyramid − at the top! So naturally, we were thrilled to sample Taza Chocolate Mexicano Discs.
