DARK CHOCOLATE-COVERED MACADAMIA NUTS

Our single origin chocolate is sourced from one country, one region, and even one single Cocoa farm.
 Like fine wine or cheese, each cocoa plant has its roots; an origin that gives it its typicality. A taste that connoisseurs — you, soon! — work to identify with pleasure.

HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF “TERROIR”?

It comes from the Latin word terra (Earth). Terroir is defined by the nature of the soil: its exposure to sun, wind, and rain; interactions between the species within its tissues; the impact of local yeasts and bacteria on the eventual fermentation process. Terroir is a cultural consideration that dictates local styles of planting, maintaining, harvesting, storing, and preparing crops like cocoa beans.
Many chocolate lovers are convinced that the quality of a chocolate depends solely on its cocoa percentage. In our opinion, this is only one criterion to consider, and further, it seems less essential to the complexity of the flavor than terroir.
That is why we have leveled each of our dark chocolates at 72%, so that you can experience the nuances in flavor without thinking about percentage. And trust us… what you will find in each of our couvertures will blow your mind.

SOCIÉTÉ MILLOT

Andzavibe plantation is named after founder Lucien Millot (1906). Seated in North Madagascar, the dazzling 3,200 acre site is the heavenly kingdom of fresh vanilla, ylang, vetiver, patchouli and… cocoa. Our partner, Valrhona, has exclusive purchase rights to 1,500 acres of this certified organic plantation, and recently became a shareholder in the Société Millot. They employ about 800 workers — the majority of which are women — and support local schools in their work. Travelers are graciously welcome, if you happen to pass by.

Kenyan Macadamia Nuts: Source & Agricultural Practices

Origin The macadamia nuts are sourced from a 10-acre farm in Kiambu County, Kenya, managed by farmer Peter Kibe.

Agroforestry System The farm utilizes an intercropping model where coffee, macadamia, and avocado trees are cultivated together on the same land. This polyculture approach creates a shaded coffee system that mimics natural forest ecosystems.

Environmental Benefits Research on macadamia-coffee intercropping systems demonstrates measurable environmental advantages:

• Soil Health: Prevents erosion while naturally increasing calcium and magnesium levels—essential nutrients for coffee berry development and quality
• Carbon Sequestration: Increased carbon and nitrogen fixation compared to monoculture systems, contributing to climate change mitigation
• Nutrient Cycling: Tree canopy provides natural mulch and shade, creating a self-sustaining nutrient recycling system
• Biodiversity: Multi-species canopy promotes diverse ecosystems and habitat protection

Reduced Chemical Dependency The shaded intercropping system significantly reduces reliance on synthetic inputs including inorganic fertilizers, insecticides, and pesticides, resulting in cleaner agricultural practices and healthier soil biology.

Economic Sustainability Multi-crop production provides farmers with diversified income streams across different ha

Though recycled, compostable, and fit to minimize packaging, our sleeves remain simple and elegant. With less waste and less postage, we are certainly not here to show off. We work everyday to find better solutions and new ways to make our products sustainable.

POUCH
