What is A2/A2 Milk?
“Traditionally, cows produced milk with A2/A2 beta-casein protein. Over time, a mutated A1 gene worked its way into dairy cattle. Cows today produce a combination of A1 and A2 proteins, creating a type of milk that is relatively new to the human body and may be more difficult to digest. We choose cows that, while roaming our pastures, only make A2/A2 milk. It’s most natural to the body and easily absorbed. You can trust that our milk is always 100% pure A2/A2. Our milk is milk the way cows were intended to produce, old fashioned milk.”

Brand Info
Adam Dick and Dustin Taylor became fascinated with the idea of reinventing the chocolate experience. In 2010 they bought some small-scale equipment and began making chocolate.
The most hands-on approach they could take was to start with raw cacao. They then sourced the finest fair-trade cacao and turned the raw ingredients into delicious chocolate in their small factory in Eureka, California. The entire process takes about three weeks, but allows them to make some of the finest chocolate possible. Using organic cacao and cane sugar and not cutting corners in their processes, they are able to leave out vanilla, additional cocoa butter and other emulsifiers in hopes of capturing and highlighting the subtle flavor nuances in the cacao they source from around the world.
Adam and Dustin hope everyone gets as much enjoyment eating their chocolate as they do making it.
