This is the real deal, 100% unsweetened and non-alkalized cocoa powder. Alkalized, or Dutch processed cocoas are less bitter, and that is what goes into milk chocolate and most chocolate candies. There are all kinds of purported health benefits for non-alkalized cocoa such as higher levels of flavonoids and antioxidants, which are supposed to be good for lowering blood pressure and all kinds of other good things. I don't know how healthy non-alkalized cocoa really is; I like the stronger flavor and that it is minimally-processed. Good stuff with lots of flavor. And this big tin is a killer good deal.
