Brian's passion for ethnobotany led him to chocolate, aka Theobroma cacao, which translated from Latin literally means "the food of the gods". Through years of courses and travels around the globe, Brian learned to unite his love for wildcrafting with the technical savvy required to make great chocolate, which is currently what you'll find him doing nearly every waking moment. Brian believes in nourishing the mind, body, and spirit through all things cacao, and his current mission in life is to spread the chocolate gospel everywhere he goes.
