They actually aren't refuting the claim. Even in the article I noticed that they are very careful in their phrasing. They never say, "We have never sold another companies chocolate" or anything like that. All they say is that from they beginning, they have been a bean-to-bar chocolate maker. That only requires that some of their bars have always been bean-to-bar, not that all the bars they've sold have been so.
