Founded with a passion for traditional craftsmanship, they manage every step of the chocolate-making process, from sourcing raw cacao to the final bar. Their commitment to the craft is reflected in their recognition by industry organizations, having received multiple honors such as the Academy of Chocolate Silver award in 2014.
This 72% dark bar highlights the unique character of beans harvested in the Sambirano Valley of Madagascar. The resulting chocolate offers a complex flavor profile that balances deep notes of molasses and raisin with a bright, refreshing hint of orange.
Simplicity is at the heart of their philosophy. The recipe for this bar is purposefully minimal, relying only on organic cacao and organic cane sugar to let the natural nuances of the Madagascar origin shine through. By focusing on pure ingredients and careful processing, the makers create a clean, elegant tasting experience that honors the source of the bean.
