Ethical Sourcing
We support farmers and communities, paying them faily for high quality cacao. We know where our cacao comes from, understand how it benefits farmers and communities, and helps encourage the production of high quality cacao for a fair price. These principles are crucial to the way we make chocolate.
Single Origin Focus
Our chocolates highlight unique regional flavours from South and Central America, Africa, Asia and the Pacific.
A chance to try and compare how the terroir, production and the type of cacao influence your chocolate. And they can differ immensely in taste, intensity and bean type and size.
The location, weather, bean type, fermentation methods, roasting and
processing all impact upon the taste of a chocolate origin.
We try and have a range that offers this variety to our customers.
Onsite Craftsmanship
Each chocolate bar is made and handcrafted onsite for the best results. We carry out the whole of the process from bean to bar.
As we do this on a small scale, we use the minimum of machinery and make small unique batches of each origin. From hand sorting all the way through to tempering by hand on marble and moulding into individual bars.
This means that we make smaller batches each time, focusing on local markets and customers, but we are always happy to semd our chocolate across the world too.
Transparency & Traceability
Detailed provenance information accompanies every batch and we list all ingredients.
We do not use palm oil, or soy lecithin, as chocolate does not need these ingredients to be added
Unlike mass producers we do not add milk to our dark chocolate.
Whenever possible, we offer an alternative to dairy when making bars of "milk" chocolate.
