2023 Harvest

Provenance: Nunokoloa, Rakiraki Province, Fiji.  Bar weight: 50 grams.

The classic chai, spiced flavors are taken to another level after aging it in a palo santo wood chamber 


The first aroma is heavenly palo santo aroma, warm cinnamon and a hint of cardamom.

The flavor is bold and thick with layers of the same palo santo saluting you at the beginning of the melt. There is also a crème brûlée caramelization, just on the edge of too far, that is a sharp tangy shot to the senses and lends a glorious counterbalance to the sweetness. An incredibly fragrant and glorious chocolate experience.  

Ingredients: Forastero amelonado, trinitario cacao beans, cane sugar and cacao butter. Bars are aged in a Palo Santo wood chamber for 30 days

Healthy, nutritious and out of this world delicious.

About the main ingredient, cacao!

These beans come from cacao lovingly cared for by the farmers in Rakiraki, a district in Fiji's Ra Province. The province has several hundred small holder cocoa farmers interplanting with coconut. The fermentation takes place in once central location.

Ra is located about halfway between Suva and Nadi when traveling along the Kings Road, on the northern coast of Viti Levu, Fiji's largest island. Prominent landmarks include Navatu Rock in Vitawa village, believed to be one of Fiji's oldest human settlements. Pottery excavated at the base of the rock has been dated to around 1000BC.
