Perché la gente del luogo lo consiglia

It’s a chocolate factory in Red Hook where I go for pure cocoa butter imported from the Dominican Republic. It’s the ingredient that makes aromatherapy butters, balms, and creams feel so luxurious. And they do their own distillations right in the factory. Join the tour to see how a raw fermented cacao bean moves from farm to bar.

Cacao Prieto makes delicious chocolate in a beautiful setting. You can pop by or get an official tour. Tours are an hour and include an in-depth look at the history of cacao in the Dominican Republic, the beans to bar process, the machinery used for processing and science that makes chocolate the unique product it is. From turn of the century antiques to patented machines invented in house, see how a raw fermented cacao bean moves from farm-to-bar through roasting, cracking, winnowing, milling, tempering, molding, and packaging. Following chocolate is a look at distilling rums, liqueurs, and whiskey from grain-to-barrel-to-bottle. Tasting flights of spirits included.
