3. Di Bruno Black Lava Cashew Chocolate Bars - Anyone who has tasted a Black Lava Cashew can speak to their addictive quality. The perfect balance between caramelized sugar and black Hawaiian sea salt, they're hard to put down! Resident Idea Man, Scott Case, had the brilliant revelation to add these to our line of chocolate bars, and one of our favorite new products was born.
Available in dark or milk chocolate >>
2. Di Bruno Sicilian Olive Oil - Quite simply, the best olive oil we have ever bottled. From the Val di Mazara region of Sicily, this blend of Biancolilla, Cerasuola and Nocellara del Belice olives results in the perfect mix of buttery sweetness with slight pepper notes.
Available in half or whole liter bottles.
1. Black Garlic Molasses - Most years, the launch of our best-ever olive oil would easily nab the #1 spot on this list. But one product captured the imagination - and taste buds - of our staff and customers in ways that we've never seen before. Black Garlic Molasses was so compelling, we launched a new blog series, Food 4 Thought, to sufficiently tell its story. The only ingredient in this black nectar is garlic, and it's as good for you as it is delicious. Read all about it here.
