THE TASTE IS IN THE ORIGIN

Blood oranges, black tea, tobacco, or vanilla – flavor notes from the trees, rainforests, or rivers of Asia, South America, and the Caribbean are the defining and special characteristics of our "Single Origin" chocolates. As the name suggests, a "Single Origin" chocolate comes from a single plantation or region of origin and is thus shaped by the local conditions. The special notes of the environment are reflected in the cocoa and give these exquisite Grand Cru chocolates an exceptional character.
