Grown by small farmer co-ops

This chocolate bar is made from organic cacao from Dominican Republic and Peru, organic sugar from Paraguay and Costa Rica, organic almonds from Spain, and sea salt from France, all sourced from co-ops. When farmers organize into co-ops they gain crucial market access, run their business democratically, and decide together how to invest in their communities. Founded in 1970 in the Apurimac River Valley of Peru, our cacao farming partner El Quinacho is a co-operative of about 220 members. In a region scarred by a history of social and political conflict, this resilient co-operative has focused on providing viable alternatives for its members and their community.

Our worker-owned, solar-generating roastery

At our Massachusetts HQ, our team batch-roasts coffee daily under a 1,418 panel solar array, bringing out the best flavors of each harvest. At the lighter end of the roast spectrum, we accentuate the unique fruity and floral notes within the beans. As the roast length increases, the natural sugars in the coffee beans caramelize and darken to elicit a richer body. Our darkest roasts fully express the beans’ natural oils, yielding subtle smokiness and flavors akin to dark chocolate. At every level, our expert team creates a smooth, clean, and balanced cup with reliable consistency from batch to batch.

Reviews

Perfectly Crafted

"I am eating the Almond and Sea Salt Dark Chocolate bar as I am writing this review. It is delicious! The almonds are fresh and crunchy and there are just the right amount of them to complement the amazing dark chocolate. The sprinkling of sea salt is divine. What a treat to be able to enjoy this taste sensation that is also organic AND fair trade!"

Love Equal Exchange Chocolate!!

"I love pretty much all of Equal Exchange's dark chocolate products. THe only thing that would make this chocolate bar better is if it was almond slices instead of whole almonds to allow for almond in every bite."

Kim C. (4/5)

No complaints here. Making it

"No complaints here. Making it with whole almonds made it fresher than it was years back when you had made it with chopped almonds. . . plus the sea salt enhances the flavor."

Q&A

I'm new to this site and I was wondering if they ever offer discounts or if the price stays the same year 'round...
Hi there, welcome to the world of Equal Exchange! Since you're new, I'll let you know that we're not a retail website and our products are in case pack quantities with wholesale pricing because you're buying in bulk and helping us move more volume for small scale farmers. That said, we do occasionally offer discounts. You're welcome to sign up via email at the very bottom of our webstore under "Stay Connected" to get notice of any promotions that are going on. Or join us on Instagram or Facebook.
