The island nation of Madagascar provides a lush environment to grow cacao of all varieties. Seeing that potential, visionaries brought cacao trees from Venezuela to Madagascar in the late 1800s. Today, the children of those trees are producing beans for Amano's single–origin Madagascar bar. We recommend this artisan chocolate for those who prefer milder fruity notes versus aggressive dark chocolate flavor. Amano's careful chocolate making preserves plum–like notes and hints of citrus and berries all riding on a buttery undercurrent. Gold medal winner from the Academy of Chocolate, London.  70% Dark Chocolate 56g (2oz) bar.
Ingredients: Cocoa beans, Pure cane sugar, Cocoa butter, Whole vanilla beans.

  PLANET POSITIVES:
+ Fair Trade. Fair trade with growers assures fair wages for small farmers. Amano pays three to four times the so–called fair trade price for cacao. Amano also works directly with farmers to improve their growing, fermentation and drying techniques and, most importantly, to take care of the land.
