Ranger Chocolate Co. Classic Truffle

Deep cacao, smooth ganache, and delicate flakes of sea salt come together in the Ranger Chocolate Co. Classic Truffle. A silky chocolate center is enclosed in Ranger’s 70% Classic Dark Chocolate and finished with Jacobsen Sea Salt for a measured contrast of richness, bitterness, and salinity. Its restrained composition reflects Ranger’s bean-to-bar approach and focus on carefully made chocolate with clear, balanced flavor.

Sensory Description:

The truffle opens with concentrated dark cacao and a fine saline accent. Its ganache center is smooth, rich, and yielding, creating a softer contrast against the firmer shell of 70% dark chocolate. Bittersweet cocoa keeps the texture composed, while flakes of Jacobsen Sea Salt sharpen the chocolate’s depth and carry the finish toward dark cocoa, gentle sweetness, and clean salinity.

Producer’s Background:

George Domurot and David Beanland founded Ranger Chocolate Co. in 2013 as one of Portland’s early bean-to-bar chocolate makers. Ranger produces chocolate from cacao roasting through final packaging at its own facility, allowing the company to maintain close control over flavor development and texture. With Domurot serving as Founder and Head Chocolate Maker, the producer applies its chocolate-making experience to single-origin bars, classic dark chocolate, caramels, truffles, bonbons, and other confections.

Serving Suggestions:

• Serve: Enjoy at cool room temperature to allow the ganache to soften and the dark chocolate aromas to open.
• Pairings: Serve with espresso, black coffee, aged rum, bourbon, tawny port, or a dark non-alcoholic spirit.
• Dessert Board: Arrange with roasted hazelnuts, dried cherries, fresh pear, or firm aged cheese.
• Occasions: Offer as an after-dinner confection, add to a chocolate assortment, or include in a gift box.

Why Ranger Chocolate Co. Classic Truffle:

Ranger Chocolate Co. Classic Truffle focuses on three complementary elements: silky ganache, 70% dark chocolate, and flake sea salt. The ganache brings richness, the dark coating supplies cacao structure, and the salt adds definition without overwhelming the chocolate. It is a polished, compact confection for customers who prefer dark chocolate depth and restrained sweetness.
