There is lots of language describing these single origins (chocolates) like a fine wine.
For example: "Complex chocolate flavors underlie subtle hints of red berry fruit. Cacao beans used to make this chocolate were harvested from trees of Criollo and Trinitario heritage in Venezuela's Sur del Lago region."
Also..."Each E. Guittard single origin chocolate is carefully crafted to showcase the unique flavors of the region and the ancient cacao tree type from which it came. We refer to them as our 'sipping chocolates' and savor them as one savors a fine wine."
When each bean or grape has a story behind it, people are probably also willing to pay more for the end product.
