Is a bean blend or single origin better?
The proprietary blend of bean varieties allows Ghirardelli to achieve a specific Ghirardelli taste that is consistent year after year. With single origin chocolate, the flavor may vary from year to year based on the crop of beans that year. Ghirardelli uses a proprietary blend of bean varieties that has been refined over the company’s 150-year history to provide the company’s distinct and intense chocolate taste. The exact source of the beans is a closely held family secret.
