FLAVORS

Garden Mint

Glenn's Raspberry

Mut Vitz Coffee Whiskey

When you give a gift from John and Kira's, you offer two opportunities for personal enjoyment. The first is to take pleasure in the amazingly delicious chocolates themselves. The second is the opportunity to commune (through the palate) with the farmers and growers that create our flavors. It is our hope that you will learn about the people and causes associated with each flavor, and maybe even get involved.

Garden Mint

We infuse real mint leaves picked by the student gardeners at Drew Elementary and UC High School into fresh cream, mix in a touch of sugar and 40% Valrhona milk chocolate to create the most delicious morsels of mint you have ever tasted. Click the chocolate to read the story!

Glenn's Raspberry

We have combined some beautiful red raspberries (a portion of which are from Glenn's Green Meadow Farm) with Valrhona milk chocolate to create an extraordinary raspberry and chocolate experience. Our most popular flavor, customers say that these are about as good as raspberry chocolates get. Click the chocolate to read more about Glenn and Green Meadow Farm!

Mut Vitz Coffee Whiskey

We infuse fresh cream with aromatic coffee from the Mut Vitz Coffee Cooperative, pour it over sumptuous Valrhona chocolate then add a dash of whiskey to create this awakening flavor. Mut Vitz, a Mexican coffee cooperative owned by the coffee farmers themselves, gives its coffee farmers direct access to the marketplace and helps promote sustainable farming practices.

Lavender Honey

This chocolate features luscious honey from Draper's Apiaries in Tioga County, PA. Our chocolatier heats the honey until it is lightly caramelized. We then add it to fresh cream that has been touched with the scent of dried lavender flowers. Finally both are poured over a very light Valrhona milk chocolate. This produces an amazing play on your palette, with caramelized honey, lavender and chocolate floating at varying degrees around your taste buds. Click the chocolate to read more about the bees!

Glenn's Strawberry

Picked at their ripest, strawberries from Glenn's Green Meadow Farm are pulped, heated and then mixed with Valrhona milk chocolate. The sweet yet subtle aroma of fresh strawberries merges perfectly with the carmel undertones of the Valrhona chocolate. Click the chocolate to read the story!

For this chocolate we combine Papohaku Ginger with Valrhona 40% milk chocolate. Click the chocolate to read more about the ginger!
