At Seabreeze, cacao is primarily sourced from selected farms across the Western Hemisphere, including Pisa, Haiti; Oko Caribe, Dominican Republic; the Maya Mountains, Belize; Cahabon, Guatemala; Cacao Miskito, Honduras; Sierra Nevada, Columbia; Wild Itenez, Bolivia; San Jose, Ecuador; and the Cusco Valley, Peru. The beans are roasted, cracked, winnowed (separate the husks from the nibs) and ground into chocolate over a seven to ten day period to achieve a smooth texture. Simultaneously, the chocolate undergoes conching, a process that integrates oxygen to bring out the chocolate's full rich flavor. Seabreeze specializes in producing dark, bitter-free chocolates.
Seabreeze Craft Chocolates is a proud participant in the thriving craft chocolate movement, which advocates for direct partnerships with cacao farmers to produce superior quality chocolates. Jim takes pride in the fact that only one intermediary links him to the farmer, ensuring transparency and fair compensation for the farmers and their workers. As a result, the farmers and collectives can take the time and effort to sustainably produce and properly process the cacao. This provides Seabreeze with the finest cacao in the world. Only the finest cacao can make the finest chocolate.
