The Mast Brothers out of Brooklyn, New York have a devout following (ourselves included) thanks to their total commitment to every step from bean to bar. Their uniquely packaged, handcrafted chocolates are truly elegant.
Made using a base of 71% cacao from Papua New Guinea that is smoked and roasted, cracked and winnowed before being stone-ground to a smooth texture. The chocolate is aged before being formed into bars and hand wrapped in the Mast Brothers' distinctive paper.
The unique roasting / smoking process gives this bar a striking smoky and savory flavor component that has hints of bacon and scotch.
Mast Brothers Chocolate
Rick and Mike Mast carefully select the beans they will roast, winnow and transform into a variety of single origin chocolates - each wrapped in a unique and beautiful paper wrap designed by friends and family.
Based in Brooklyn, NY they are true artisans in that they work in tiny batches with meticulous care to preserve the indigenous flavors of their chocolate varieties.They work closely with estates like the Somia Plantation in Madagascar, La Red de Guaconejo in the northern highlands of the Dominican Republic and the ancient cocoa farms of the Venezuelan Caribbean coast.
As their website reads...
Craft chocolate depends on world-class execution. With artful roasting, careful winnowing, stone grinding, patient aging, and flawless tempering, truly one of a kind craft chocolate can be made - all done by simply using two ingredients, cacao and cane sugar. With craft this pure, there is no need to add any additional butter, oils, vanilla, soy, preservatives or emulsifiers.
