Kiki, greeted us.\u00a0 She is petite and full of energy and she has obviously studied because she had plenty of information to share with us.\u00a0 We were given food safe protection for our clothing and hair and our tour started with information about where the beans come from and shown several large photos hanging on the wall to visually reference the beans at various growing phases.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14px;\">It was also at this point that we learned that Erica Davis, of Top Chef:\u00a0 Just Desserts fame was creative director for Graycliff Chocolatier and
