Theo & Philo is a Filipino bean-to-bar chocolate maker that focuses on showcasing the unique characteristics of local cocoa ingredients.
Theo & Philo is a bean-to-bar chocolate maker based in the Philippines. As an artisan producer, the company emphasizes the transformation of raw cocoa into finished bars within its own facilities. Their name reflects the union of two concepts, highlighting a dedication to the craft of chocolate making in their home country.
The production process involves a careful approach to post-harvest handling, utilizing a documented fermentation and drying protocol to prepare the beans. During the refining stage, the maker employs a melanger to achieve the desired texture of the chocolate. This methodical control allows for a consistent expression of the cocoa throughout their product line.
Sourcing is central to their operations, as the maker maintains direct trade relationships to acquire their ingredients. By engaging directly with producers, they oversee the quality of the raw material from the start. Each bar is typically offered in a 45-gram format, emphasizing a focused tasting portion for those interested in the results of their specific processing techniques.
