Amano Macoris 70%
“Years ago, I found a beautiful cocoa plantation that has forever caught my imagination. On this particular day, it was overcast and the cocoa trees were new and laden with a rainbow of cocoa pods. It was very peaceful with the exception of the tropical birds chirping and squawking. As the light came through the leaves, I could not help but feel if there was a garden of Eden, it had to be just like this. Ever since, I have wanted to make chocolate with beans from this magical place.
It took seven years. As they say, good things come to those who wait. I hope this chocolate is as special for you as it is for me.”
– Art Pollard (founder and chocolate maker)
