Maker Comments | Upon visiting Marou Faiseurs de Chocolat in 2013 we felt immediately jealous. Their funky workshop in beautiful (and hot!) Saigon, the vintage old roasters, & the fact that they can just jump into their old 1975 Citroen "La Dalat" and drive out into the countryside to purchase cacao beans. Their journey led them to this interesting cacao from the Mekong delta named "Tien Giang" of which we received a shipment earlier this year. (Tasting notes: cherry pie, honey, blackberry.) |
