Sourced directly from the lush, volcanic soils of the legendary Sambirano Valley in Madagascar, our premium raw cocoa represents the absolute pinnacle of Single-Origin agricultural excellence. Madagascar is globally celebrated for producing some of the finest flavor cocoas in the world (designated 100% “Fine Flavor” cocoa by the International Cocoa Organization). Blessed with a unique tropical microclimate and pure rainwater, the cocoa trees of Sambirano yield pods with an unrivaled complexity of aromas.

We preserve this natural treasure through generations-old, sustainable agroforestry practices. Every single pod is hand-harvested at peak ripeness, carefully opened, and the beans are naturally fermented in wooden cascading boxes before being sun-dried on traditional mats. This meticulous artisanal process develops the signature flavor profile of Madagascan cocoa: intense chocolaty notes balanced by bright citrus acidity, delicate red fruit undertones, and a subtle whisper of sweet forest wood.

Conservation & Usage Guidelines

To preserve the delicate aroma profile, store the dried beans in a cool, dry place (16–18°C) away from direct sunlight and strong odors. For bean-to-bar processing, gently roast the beans at low temperatures (110°C to 120°C) to fully release the complex fruity bouquet before cracking and winnowing.
