Hot Cocoa, Spiced, Case of 4

On our trips to Central America we were often given a drink made with cacao and allspice, which is known as "Pimienta Gorda" (fat pepper) in Spanish.  Adding local spices was a common way to make "chocolatl," a drink which was, for thousands of years, the primary way people consumed cacao. The history of chocolatl is fascinating, dating back thousands of years to the Olmecs, Mayans and finally the Aztecs.   Although traditional chocolatl doesn't include sugar, this hot cocoa is a sweet and savory way to experience the spiced flavors which are present in the historically significant drink. As with all our hot cocoas we've freshly pressed this cacao powder ourselves, from the same directly sourced single origin beans we use to make our bars.  We're one of the only chocolate makers who do this!  It's not alkalized and there are no additives, so in addition to the savory, spicy flavors of the pimienta you can also taste the true flavor notes of the cacao.  This is the perfect hot cocoa for
