Maker Comments | Part of the 2300 ha Åkesson family estate, the plantation is located in the Sambirano Valley, in the North-West of Madagascar. Since 1920 we have produced world-famous aromatic cocoa. Besides 300 tons of trinitario cocoa produced every year, a very limited quantity of criollo beans - 2 tons - is harvested separately. This chocolate has a very expressive cocoa aroma with subtle fruity-sweet tartness and pleasant flavour notes that evoke citrus and red berries. |
