This chocolate is made exclusively from cocoa from the most famous of all terroirs for Madagascan beans: the Sambirano River Valley. We are lucky to have been able to source cocoa beans from Bertil Akesson, whose 2300 hectare family estate, located in Ambanja, has produced world-famous aromatic cocoa since 1920. A dark chocolate packed with flavour brought out of the fruity Madagascan beans. This chocolate has high notes of citrus mellowing into tropical fruits; ending with balanced acidity. Bean to bar chocolate handmade in Suffolk, UK.

Sebastian O.★★★★★
The Sambirano Valley fruitiness really comes through in this bar—bright, almost berry-like, with a silky melt that lingers just right. I’ve had a lot of single-origin dark chocolate, but this one’s balance is something else.
Stella J.★★★★★
I’ve been buying bars from different regions to compare, and this one from the Sambirano River Valley stands out—the cocoa just tastes so deep and almost floral, you can tell it’s something special. The 72% is smooth, not overly bitter, and melts way slower than I’m used to. Definitely my new go-to
Robert Z.★★★★★
The fruitiness in this Sambirano Valley bar is incredible, it practically tastes like fresh berries rather than candy. I've been slowly savoring a square each evening and the deep, wine-like finish makes it worth every penny.
