If you’re craving an ultra-creamy, comforting treat, try Dick Taylor’s 55% Vanilla Milk Chocolate Bar. Featuring premium quality organic Brazilian cacao, highlighted by the addition of aromatic organic Madagascan vanilla beans, this luscious bar offers a sophistication that even lovers of very dark chocolate tend to appreciate. There’s also something quite unique about the organic, grass-fed whole milk that is incorporated into this bar. Have you heard of A2/A2 milk with beta-casein protein? It’s the kind of old-fashioned milk that cows roaming on pastures used to produce before a genetic mutation caused dairy cattle to start producing a more difficult-to-digest, hybridized version containing both A1 and A2 proteins.

Dick Taylor, known for their commitment to sourcing the choicest ingredients, has proudly partnered with Alexandre Family Farm, one of the only U.S. dairies producing organic, grass-fed A2/A2 milk. Barometer Chocolate is delighted to stock this truly superior dark milk craft chocolate bar that is often easily absorbed by those with lactose intolerance. 

Care to pair? The Vanilla Milk Bar would be lovely on a cheeseboard with dates, soft ripened triple cream cheese, and sourdough toast. Spiced chai or golden milk would be great to accompany the pairing. If wine is more your speed, try Banyuls, a dessert wine made primarily of Grenache grapes, or Scotch aged in a sherry cask.

 With more complexity than most dark milks, expect this Dick Taylor bar to offer rich notes of vanilla, caramel and toast. One of my guests at a recent tasting said the bar reminded her of rich chocolate gelato. See if you experience that when you allow the flavor arc to unfold.
