My journey started by selling chocolates and confections from a small shop in New England over twenty-five years ago. Having always wanted to make my own chocolate, I became enamoured with the bean-to-bar manufacturing process and set out to produce, from start to finish, award-winning organic chocolate.
With no idea how to begin, I booked a flight to South America with a friend, where we met up with the folks from TAZA Chocolate and visited farmers, cooperatives, and local chocolate makers. I fell in love, and BOHO Chocolate was born.
BOHO is short for Bohemian, which means that we take an organic, artistic, and independent approach to making quality organic chocolate. We derive our ideas and style not from the corporate chocolate industry, but from a broad and diverse group of true artisans whose collective interest in the craft continues to transform how premium chocolate is made.
