Pure cacao mass from Kulike Farm - we use 100% nibs from organically grown cacao from our permaculture farm and other small organic farms on the east side of Big Island (Hawaii).  We aim for a nutty, mild, deeply chocolatey mass with low acidity, yet with slight bitterness and fruity notes for lingering interest.   When the batch has more fruity notes, we label it "fruity" vs. "premium," which ends on more base notes. (Both are delicious!) We ferment in banana-leaf lined boxes, then dry, roast, and blend in our granite-stone grinder for 2-3 days.  There is no cocoa butter added.  All of our processing is by hand, in small-batches, with great care in every step, so the quality is exceptional.  We pour in thin slabs to make handling easier as you transform into your favorite drink, baked item, or your own chocolate.  Our packaging is a simple ziplock bag.  Please select either fruity (@ $50/lb) or premium (@$55/lb).
