Honeycomb Dark Milk

Crisp dark honeycomb pieces, made with Hendal Honey, are mixed into this naturally citrusy 60% milk chocolate.
This milk chocolate is made from organic Heirloom Cacao (Designee #15) with notes of ripe red fruits, nuts and toffee. It comes from Akessons's organic farm Bejofo Estate in Sambirano Valley, Madagascar, and presents the flavour profile this area is so famous for. 
Bejofo Estate is an organic cacao orchard that makes up one part of the 2000-hectare Akesson Estate in northwest Madagascar’s Sambirano valley.  Akesson’s Estate is divided into four smaller estates-Madirofolo, Menavava, Bejofo, and Ambolikapik. It is managed by Bertil Akesson, who has specialized in growing fine cocoa, pepper, and other spices for many years. Bejofo Estate produces 300 tons of cocoa a year. Bertil also sells chocolate made out of his own cocoa under the “Akesson’s Organic” brand, which is sold throughout the world.
Cacao was introduced to Madagascar by French colonialists in the 19th century. They first planted Criollo, some of which is still around today. However, the majority of today’s crops in Madagascar are considered Trinitario. The country produces nearly 3000 tons of beans a year. Most of the trees are concentrated in the Sambirano Valley in the northwest, where soil and climate are ideal for growing high quality cacao.
We medium/dark roast this bean to bring out balancing raisin notes.
