GFA Evaluation

How this product scored against the Good Food Standard

Good

Single-origin dark chocolate made from a rare heirloom cacao variety grown near Virunga National Park in the Democratic Republic of Congo, made in small batches direct from bean to bar.

Clean

No blanket organic or B Corp certification found for this specific product; sourcing and environmental practices are self-reported by the company.

Fair

Original Beans is a member of Direct Cacao, a network of bean-to-bar makers who commit to paying farmers significantly above the Fair Trade minimum price -- a named, verifiable trade-practice membership rather than a self-described "partnership."

True

The Direct Cacao membership is publicly listed and verifiable independently of Original Beans' own marketing; we are not claiming an organic or B Corp certification that hasn't been independently confirmed.
