WHAT IS STONE GROUND CHOCOLATE?
We use traditional Mexican stone mills, called molinos, to grind our cacao. These hand-carved stones preserve the bright, fruity flavors of the beans, and create a chocolate that’s bold, rustic, and satisfyingly gritty -- unlike any other chocolate you’ve tasted.

ABOUT OUR PROCESS
➜

[H2]
PUTTING FARMERS FIRST
From farm to factory, we do things differently. We said no to predatory middlemen and abusive labor practices. We created the chocolate industry’s first third-party certified Direct Trade cacao sourcing program, to ensure quality and transparency for all.

Shipping Information

[H3] GENERAL SHIPPING INFO
Orders generally ship within 1-3 business days of receipt. Once shipped, orders generally take 2 business days in transit to reach their destination. The default shipping method (UPS Ground Saver, Ground, or 2 Day Air) will depend on your location, but is selected to arrive in 2 transit days to avoid melting.
During peak season orders may take an extra 1-3 business days to fulfill.
We use UPS to fulfill all shipments, and we currently only ship to the continental United States, Hawaii and Alaska.
Please note that UPS does not deliver to PO Boxes or APO / FPO addresses. We are unable to ship to PO Boxes or APO / FPO addresses at this time.
If you elect to upgrade to UPS Next Day shipping, please note that this will only shorten the transit time once the package has shipped.
[H3] SHIPPING CHOCOLATE IN WARM WEATHER
Chocolate is easily damaged by heat and sunlight. We take every precaution to ensure your chocolate reaches you in perfect, delicious condition!
When temperatures require it, we always include an ice pack and insulation to prevent melting during transit.
During warm weather months, we do not ship on Fridays, to avoid chocolate shipments melting over the weekend. During these months, any orders received after 11:59 PM ET on Tuesday may ship the following Monday.
We highly recommend shipping your chocolate to an address where someone is available to receive it in a timely fashion in order to avoid any damage. Even sitting out on a porch for a few hours can cause damage in warm weather.
Even with every precaution, very warm weather sometimes means we are unable to ship your chocolate as quickly we normally would.
We may need to delay your shipment up to a week to avoid a heat wave, or to avoid having it sit in a warm warehouse over the weekend. If your order needs to be held, you will receive an email notification.
In some cases, it is simply too hot to ship chocolate. If we cannot fulfill your order in a timely manner because of extreme heat, your order will automatically be cancelled and refunded, and you will receive an email notification.
[H3] UPS INFORMATION
UPS makes home deliveries Monday through Saturday to residential addresses. No deliveries are made on legal holidays. For more information about UPS, please visit the UPS website.
The default shipping method will vary based on the shipping destination, to ensure that packages will generally not be in transit more than 2 days. For faster delivery, we offer Next Day Air shipping, at an additional cost.
[H3] INTERNATIONAL ORDERS:
At this time, we are only able to ship to destinations in the United States. We do not ship internationally. Email info@tazachocolate.com to find Taza at a store near you!
If you are ordering from another country for shipment to an address in the United States, please note that we only accept credit cards that support AVS (address verification system). Many banks outside the United States do not issue cards that support AVS; please contact your bank to verify AVS support on your credit card.

SERIOUSLY GOOD FOR ALL

At Taza Chocolate we make stone ground chocolate that is seriously good and fair for all. Cacao is so complex in flavor that we want to let it shout loud and proud. That is why we do less to bring you more. We stone grind organic cacao beans into perfectly unrefined, minimally processed chocolate with bold flavor and texture, unlike anything you have ever tasted

[H2]
HOW IT ALL STARTED
Taza founder and CEO Alex Whitmore took his first bite of stone ground chocolate while traveling in Oaxaca, Mexico. He was so inspired by the rustic intensity that he decided to create a chocolate factory back home in Somerville, MA. He learned to hand-carve granite mill stones to make chocolate that is less processed, so our Direct Trade cacao can shine. In 2005, he officially launched Taza with his wife, Kathleen Fulton, who is Taza's Chief Design Officer and designed all of the packaging.

[H2]
DIRECT TRADE
Taza is a pioneer in ethical cacao sourcing. We were the first U.S. chocolate maker to establish a third- party certified Direct Trade Cacao Certification program. We maintain direct relationships with our cacao farmers and pay a premium above the Fair Trade price for their cacao. We partner only with cacao producers who respect the rights of workers and the environment.
