Goodnow Farms - Hot Cocoa, Maple Sugar

Ranked in the Best Chocolate of 2024 Origin & Craft Crafted by Goodnow Farms, this hot cocoa is made from the same directly sourced, premium single-origin cacao beans used in their chocolate bars, combined with golden New England maple sugar from Severance Maple. Goodnow Farms presses its own cocoa butter, a time-intensive process that allows the hot cocoa mix to be made from scratch in-house, delivering depth and clarity of flavor. The cocoa is not alkalized and contains no additives, preserving the natural character of the beans and their flavanols—even if it requires a bit more stirring. Flavor Profile Fruit-forward and chocolaty, layered with natural maple sweetness. The overall impression is rich and vibrant, with cacao depth balanced by warm, clean maple notes. Tasting & Pairing Guide Prepare with hot milk or water, whisking or frothing thoroughly to fully dissolve. Expect a fuller, more expressive cup than alkalized cocoas. Enjoy on its own, or alongside simple pastries that complement its maple warmth. Summary A 100% plant-based maple hot cocoa made from single-origin cacao and real maple sugar. Non-alkalized and pressed in-house, it delivers a rich, flavorful, and distinctly natural drinking-chocolate experience.
