Description Description

Dark, fruity, citrusy. . . all in one. (Just like you.)

Our beloved 70% Guatemala consistently reminds us of raisinets, sans the chewiness. In fact, these nibbles practically insist that we "chew, then stew" to best take in the flavors' unfolding: a whirlwind of bright, tart and still deeply chocolatey flavors slowly let loose the longer we linger.

With only two ingredients – organic cacao and organic unrefined coconut sugar – the beauty of the bar comes from the slow melting action of the cacao's naturally-occurring cocoa butter. Take a bite of a single square, maybe one or two more if you're feeling angsty, then let the swirling action unfurl.

For the extra adventurous: set a timer for 8 minutes, and jot down the first few words that come to mind with each two-minute interval. Then, for round two (on the same day or a separate sitting, preferably with a different bar or soothing tea in between), try it again.

How do the results evolve? How do you find your real-time impressions may reflect your environment – spatial, physical, emotional?

About the origin About the origin

Cacao Verapaz, under the Uncommon Cacao umbrella, has made a significant mark in Guatemala's cacao industry. As a certified B Corp, they initiated a substantial shift by exporting specialty cacao from the country's independent growers, starting their work in Cahabón in 2015. Their focus wasn't just on the cacao but also on the people behind it, particularly the small-scale farmers who were often overlooked and underserved, forced to sell their cacao to middlemen known as "coyotes."

Identifying this disconnect, Cacao Verapaz took a decisive step in 2022 by establishing the "Acopio" – “gathering” in Spanish – a centralized facility in Cahabón dedicated to fermenting and drying cacao. The Acopio soon brought together 309 producers, all certified organic, creating a community committed to quality and sustainability. More recently, the Acopio was purchased and is now managed by the incredible folks at FEDECOVERA, a local third-tier cooperative comprised of hundreds of families, spanning the indigenous Qe’qchi Mayan communities who have produced cacao for generations. In January 2025, our cofounders Kobi and Tovya Goodwin had the privilege to meet, and share our chocolate, with several of the families and individual farmers who grew the cacao that made it possible.

The recent harvest brought us notes of chocolate ganache, raisins, and the occasional hint of black pepper — a fun opportunity for us to highlight varying flavor combinations through our own craft. The depth of flavor available for us to highlight is a testament to the rigorous quality control during the beans’ post-harvest stage. Tovya and Kobi visited FEDECOVERA’s dedicated agricultural lab, clonal garden and fermentation facilities in Cobán, where the cooperative invests in producing and distributing homeopathic, organic fertilizers specifically designed to increase the quality, disease resistance, and ultimately the livelihood and financial security of all those who keep this work alive — from the cacao trees to the rainforests, communities, families and human beings that nourish them.

Creamy chocolate made by people who care about the earth and humanity! Great flavor!

Delicious hand crafted chocolate. Not the kind you just eat mindlessly, but the kind you savor with every bite.

Excellent product - quality and variety are first rate; customer service is friendly, I know they value my business!

I'm a hardcore dark chocolate lover, and can humbly say I've had some of the best chocolate from all over the world....and Slowcocoa is in the very top rank. This is SUPERB chocolate, made with the finest ingredients and with loving care by true craftspeople. I cannot recommend it highly enough!

I enjoy trying something new every week! I will always get the hot chocolate though!

I really enjoy shopping at this booth! Coby(?) is so friendly and knowledgeable!

This chocolate tea changed my life and I have been pushing it on anyone and everyone who will listen. It is so good for you and so delicious.

The tastiest chocolate I’ve ever had. Kobi is thoughtful and conscientious about his craft from start to finish and the proof is in the chocolate! Would make a great gift or a treat for yourself!

This chocolate is unlike any I have ever had! I love that most of the bars are only made with two ingredients (the most important): organic cacao and organic sugar. So yummy and smooth, and the hot chocolate is to die for. Will definitely be getting more for myself and loved ones!

This is truly the best chocolate I've EVER had, and I'm a TRUE chocolate lover. They care so much about the quality of their chocolates, and it really shows through in the flavor. Nothing I've been able to find at grocery stores hold a candle to it. They are always coming out with new fun origins to try, and a lot of the chocolate bars have a little poem inside to go with it which is so lovely and sweet. Such an innovative way to enjoy this delicacy, and I can't imagine finding a more flavorful chocolate bar than these ones. Thank you slowcocoa for bringing such delicious joy to my life!

delicious and carefully crafted with lots of love!! so much care and attention is put into the sourcing and producing of this chocolate and it shows in the hand-packaged products and the deliciousness of every variety!

Best chocolate ever! Love supporting local NYC businesses :)

I tried this chocolate at the Larchmont Farmer’s Market. Really really delicious!! High quality chocolate and not too sweet. Kobi gave me free samples and he’s a delight!

Such an awesome organization & quite literally The BEST chocolate I’ve experienced. The story, the vision, the minimal high-quality ingredients— sensory & energetic depth to the 9’s. So Many Layers of Love. Truly experiential, mind-body-soul food-medicine

Some of the best new vegan craft chocolate on the market right now. This delicious company keeps me coming back with their new creative flavors and pop up shops in farmers markets around the tri-state area! Highley recommend for vegans AND non-vegans!

This is my new favorite chocolate!!

For slowcocoa (and slowcocoa alone) I’d brave the subway an hour and a half, 8 am, Sunday morning. Those spicy Pequin mangos will really wake you up, yowza :0

I don't usually care for typing a review but this chocolate bar was so good that I had to type this. I have a really sweet tooth and have limited options because I'm a vegan. I'm so glad to have discovered Slow Cocoa. 10/10 would recommend

Some of the best chocolate I’ve ever had — including non-vegan chocolate. The consistency and flavor is incredible. Truly.

PS. The white chocolate is better than any non-vegan white chocolate (in my opinion). I’m not a white chocolate person, but slowcocoa white chocolate is one of my all time favorites. 10/10

Dark chocolate has never been a favorite of mine, but WOW! After tasting @slowcocoa for the first time, this vegan, craft chocolate is my new go-to! Try it for a whole new experience of decadence.

Great chocolate and even better company! Watching the slow cocoa process is a magical experience topped off with an unforgettable taste!

Unique, creamy, rich, vegan chocolate that is so thoughtfully made and packaged. There’s nothing else like it!

The best vegan chocolate I’ve ever had. I’m not even vegan, but I can honestly say this is the tastiest, most high-quality chocolate. The delivery was fast and packaging is so cute. Will definitely be buying more!

An inspiring endeavor bringing vegan chocolate, fair trade, mindfulness and slowness- tastes great, highly recommended
