Maker Comments | Writer V.S. Naipaul once wrote of his native Trinidad: "The cacao woods were like the woods of fairy-tales, dark and shadowed, and cool. The cacao-pods, hanging by thick short stems, were like wax fruit in brilliant green and yellow and red-crimson and purple." The setting in which the cacao of Gran Couva's Montserrat Hills is cultivated conveys magic and beauty, both. Rooted in the rich soil of the region, cacao trees flourish beneath the orange-flowering canopy of monstrous, 'flaming' Immortelle trees. One taste of this chocolate's delicate flavors and you will feel like you are living "happily ever after." |
