coast of the island, not too far from the historical Henderson
airport. As education is mandatory on all the islands we buy from,
after school, all the children are seen playing around the
fermentation boxes and cocoa boxes. Our main farmer has four
sisters and a wife that help maintain the farm. Each playing a part
in the cocoa production – from finance to fermenting - which means
it’s a family discussion when our Chocolate Makers goes out there
to meet them and check the crops. The fermenting of our cocoa beans
takes place just 50 metres from the main houses and with the smell
of acetic acid (vinegar) aroma that occurs during fermenting of
cocoa being present during harvest season. Due to the showery
squalls that dash in from the South Seas, our farmers are invested
in solar drying enclosures in the form of raised drying beds that
can be quickly covered with canvas after the 50-metre dash! This
form of drying and not fire-drying - allows the true flavours
inherent in the cocoa bean to come through without smokiness being
a flavour note. About the Producer Founded by two passionate
chocolate makers and eaters with over 70 years of chocolate
experience, we launched firetree in 2019 but have been sourcing
rare beans from remote oceanic islands for several years now. We
started firetree to create a range of chocolate without parallel.
Each island variation we make only uses cocoa from a single estate.
We create a range of single estate chocolate bars, all with their
own subtle tastes derived from the volcanic soils of the islands
the cocoa trees grow on. As we work directly with our farmers, we
are able to influence the picking, fermenting and drying of the
beans before they are shipped directly to us in the UK. Our promise
on sustainability: Instead of dealing with our farmers through
agents, we go to them directly. By cutting out the middle man, the
farmers get more for their hard work. Two or three times the market
rate in fact. It means they can provide for their families, and
commit to high agricultural standards that makes for a great
chocolate.
