Our Cocoa

Well-fermented, sun-dried, export-grade cocoa crafted with care.

Product Overview

Our cocoa beans originate from Madagascar’s Sambirano Valley, known for its fine-flavor Trinitario and Criollo varieties.
 
They are cherished worldwide for:
  • Fruity and floral notes
  • Balanced acidity
  • Deep, aromatic flavor
 
We supply well-fermented, sun-dried, export-grade beans with 6.5–7.5% moisture, ensuring long-lasting flavor and stability.

Product Summary

Selection

Only fully ripe cocoa pods are harvested manually to ensure maximum sweetness and flavor potential. Beans are pre-sorted to remove underripe, damaged, or mold-affected pods for a clean and consistent start.

Fermentation

Cocoa beans are fermented in traditional wooden boxes for 5–6 days, with turning every 48 hours. This natural process develops the fruity aroma and balanced acidity that Sambirano Valley cocoa is known for.

Drying

After fermentation, beans are sun-dried for 5–7 days on mats or raised tables. They are regularly stirred for uniform drying until they reach 6.5–7.5% moisture, protecting flavor and preventing mold.

Sorting & Grading

Once dried, beans are hand-sorted to remove flat, broken, or discolored pieces. This ensures a clean, uniform, export-grade batch that meets international fine-flavor cocoa standards.
