2 x 'Guadalcanal' Vegan Dark Chocolate Bar by Firetree
Chocolate 65g - Vegan Chocolate Bar - Volcanic Chocolate
Brand: Firetree
The coast of Guadalcanal, nestled in the heart of the
Solomon Islands, is home to some of the finest cocoa from this
region. The cocoa trees grow in this rich volcanic soil, protected
from the midday sun beneath high coconut palms. Their beans
encapsulate a subtle cocoa flavour overlaid with delicate plum and
citrus notes. Grown on a family farm, the unique qualities of our
cocoa beans are protected from the sun by the shade of coconut
trees. The harvesting, de-podding and fermentation are undertaken
by the extended family, whose care and skill assures a rare and
exquisite chocolate experience. The long finish and lingering taste
of our chocolate is due to the firetree, or cocoa tree, which
thrives on the uniquely rich, porous soils of the South Seas'
remote volcanic Islands. Firetree's superior beans yield a distinct
depth and complexity. Tasting Notes: Red fruits citrus and plum,
with enduring cocoa undertones. To enjoy fully, take time to let
the flavours develop on the palate. 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.
