Ranked in the Best Chocolate of 2025

Origin & Craft
Crafted by Goodnow Farms, this hot cocoa is made entirely from scratch in the maker’s own chocolate kitchen. Goodnow Farms presses its own cocoa butter—a time-consuming process that allows full control over flavor and texture—and uses the same premium single-origin beans found in their chocolate bars, so each cocoa retains a distinct profile.
Unlike most commercial cocoa, this hot cocoa is not alkalized (not Dutch-processed). Skipping alkalization preserves the natural flavor of the beans and retains cacao’s naturally occurring flavanols, even if it requires a bit more stirring.

This cocoa was awarded Best in Competition at the International Chocolate Awards – World Drinking Chocolate Competition.

Flavor Profile
Rich and expressive with a distinctive nutty character, showcasing the natural qualities of the Almendra Blanca cacao.

Tasting & Pairing Guide
Prepare with hot milk or water, whisking or frothing thoroughly to fully dissolve the cocoa. Expect a fuller mouthfeel and clearer bean character than alkalized cocoas. Enjoy on its own, or alongside simple pastries that won’t overshadow its nutty depth.

Summary
An award-winning, non-alkalized hot cocoa made from single-origin Almendra Blanca beans. Pressed, blended, and finished in-house, it delivers a rich, nut-forward cup that highlights cacao’s true flavor and benefits.
