Description
In diverse agroforestry systems connected to Reserva Zorzal, a 1,019-acre private bird sanctuary in the Dominican Republic, Zorzal cacao is grown by farmers whose commitment to conservation and quality shows in every harvest. This is single-origin bean-to-bar chocolate at its most uncompromising: no sugar, no additions, nothing standing between you and what responsibly sourced Dominican Republic cacao actually tastes like.
Intense? Yes. Complex in a way that takes a moment to understand? Also yes. Craft chocolate for the devoted and the curious. Roasted and crafted in small batches in our Bend, Oregon roastery, full 1.75 oz bar.
About Smithsonian Bird Friendly®: This bar is made with 100% Bird Friendly certified cocoa, a certification Smithsonian scientists developed from decades of ecological research. It's reserved for farms that are deforestation-free and that maintain genuine bird habitat through shade trees or protected forest. Every purchase supports the farmers doing that conservation work and the research behind the standard.

Seahorse Chocolate joined 1% for the Planet to back up our values with action. Through this membership, we donate one percent of our annual sales to groups working to protect biodiversity and build climate resilience in cocoa landscapes. This commitment gives us the chance to support the people and organizations doing critical on-the-ground work where cocoa is grown.
Cacao is especially well-suited to play a key role in climate and biodiversity solutions. When grown in diverse agroforestry systems, it can support healthy ecosystems, store carbon, retain water, and help protect soil, all while offering a profitable crop for smallholder farmers. These working landscapes are essential to meeting global conservation goals. Through 1% for the Planet, we’re investing in the future of cocoa and the landscapes that make great chocolate possible. We’ll be sharing more soon about the projects we support through our newsletter, so join us here for updates.
Please note that warm weather shipping is in effect. Starting June 1st, a $7 surcharge will be added to each order for insulated packaging. 🌞
