Flaky Sea Salt | Dominican Republic 70%

Chocolate and salt were made for each other. This bar is made with single-origin cacao from Zorzal, a Bird Friendly® certified farm in the Dominican Republic prized for its bright, fruity character. A touch of Bitterman's fleur de sel runs straight through the chocolate, then every bar gets finished with a sprinkle of Bitterman's Cypriot lemon flake salt for pops of crunchy, zesty flavor. Roasted and made by hand in Bend, Oregon. About Smithsonian Bird Friendly®: This bar is made with 100% Bird Friendly® certified cocoa, a standard built by Smithsonian scientists on decades of ecological research. Certified farms have to be deforestation-free, certified organic, and rich with real habitat for birds, whether that's a diverse shade canopy or protected forest. Choosing it means backing the farmers doing that work on the ground, along with the research and agricultural extension that keeps the program moving forward.
