This chocolate is made from stone ground, organic Mexican-style 70% dark chocolate discs bursting with bold flavour and texture. I've tried this chocolate before and it has a gritty texture. There are two discs in each package, perfect for sharing.

This large natural cotton flour sack tea towel is screen printed with an original kitchen herb drawing. These are hand-printed in small batches using environmentally friendly water-based ink.

April's Explore Local Box has a total value just under $42. I love these type of regional boxes! They're great for those who travel, but for those who don't or can't, you get to experience a bit of what that city has to offer without actually being there. The overall value is very good considering that small business boxes like this are more about the experience than value. I look forward to seeing more from Explore Local Box!
