Located in the Sambirano Valley, near Ambanja, in the North-West of Madagascar, Bertil Åkesson's estate spreads over about 2000 ha. Since 1920, world-famous aromatic cocoa and spices are produced there and today most of the top chefs and chocolate makers around the world use cocoa from this estate. Besides 300 tons of Trinitario cocoa produced every year, a very limited quantity of Criollo beans - 2 tons per year - is harvested separately to make this chocolate. It has a very expressive cocoa aroma with subtle fruity-sweet tartness and pleasant flavour notes that evoke citrus and red berries. -

- To Chocolate Naive, the Equator collection concept is to use ingredients that come from a single ecosystem. Because an ecosystem's minerals, water, soil give life to its plants, the elements that thrive together inherently taste good together. Every chocolate bar from this collection is solely composed of ingredients grown the area on region of the earth surrounding the equator with bright and intense flavors symbiotically blended into the house made tropical chocolate. 'Inhale so you can sense the aromas of exotic flowers and plants. Taste. Let the flavors of the jungle help you to understand.' This series consists of 6 bars: Spices, Incan Berry, Super Dark, Tahini, Peanut Butter and Orange Liquorice. The story of the Peanut Butter bar goes as follows. This peanut butter chocolate is made by the devil himself. The chocolate is mixed with the devil's horn and is so tempting that the recipe was included in the list of the biggest sins in the world. For almost four days, the peanut butter is churned and whipped by virgins and on the fifth day Lucifer joins the chocolate making process. The divine tears of virgin girls are mixed together with the flames of inferno and from this act of deflowering the peanut butter chocolate bar is born. So damn good... . Domantas Uzpalis, chocolatier at Chocolate Naive. Ingredients: organic cacao butter, organic sugar, organic cacao, grass-fed milk powder, organic peanuts, sea salt. BB: 2025-12-14

- Adam Dick and Dustin Taylor are the co-founders of Dick Taylor Craft Chocolate. Beginning with the highest quality cacao from Belize, Adam and Dick set out to create a chocolate bar unlike anything else. They began by aging cocoa nibs in Straight Bourbon Whiskey barrels.

The resulting bar is amazingly robust and complex with pronounced oak and bourbon flavors. A true one of a kind tasting experience.

- These special beans from the Sambirano Valley in Madagascar boast a big flavor: bright, acidic fruit like dried cherry and cranberries, guaranteed to surprise you. The intensity comes from the volcanic soil on Bertil Åkesson’s private plantation, called Bejofo Estate, and has become a signature among craft chocolate makers. In the 1970s, Bertil’s family moved to Madagascar from Sweden and purchased several spice plantations, one of which had quite a few untended cacao trees. Since then that 2,300 hectare farm has become the mainstay of Bertil’s operation. The beans are fermented in wooden boxes for six days, then dried in the sun on raised beds and concrete patios. Bertil’s beans have become a hallmark of the bean-to-bar chocolate movement, with almost every maker creating their own version. But Fruition Chocolate Works launched theirs later than most. Every time they’d see Bertil, whom they’ve known since 2013, he’d nudge Bryan. “When are you going to make chocolate with my beans?” Bryan would reply, “I want to do them justice!” Finally, five years after meeting Bertil and tasting his beans, Bryan felt happy with his results. In 2018 they launched their single-origin Madagascar bar and have been delighted by its nuanced fruitiness — a big contrast from many of the roastier, earthier beans they work with that makes it extra special.

- The main mission for the Peruvian founders of Maraná, Zulema and Giuseppe is to introduce the world to some of Peru's best cocoa beans. The 100% bar is made with cocoa beans from the Cusco region. In addition, they aim to improve the position of the cooperatives and the farmers and thereby increase the quality of the beans they produce. With their distinctive packaging, Maraná has endeavored to represent the cultural identity and heritage of their country. The packaging for Maraná's Cusco collection is inspired by Sarhua's painted shelves. This was a form of folk art from the Peruvian Andes that the families used to pass on stories about their ancestors to their descendants. Taste notes: rich notes of sweet raisins and molasses with a subtle bourbon-like finish. This bar has a smooth, rather silky texture that perfectly matches its rich, bold overtones.

- Cacao from Andean heights. Beneath the heights of Machu Picchu, the astonishing citadel built by the ancient Incas, grow the heirloom chuncho cacaos that have survived the passing of times in the Urubamba Valley. The old and sturdy chuncho trees, some of which are 200 years old, grow at an altitude nearly unheard of for growing cacao. This is the home of the endangered condor, the largest flying bird in the world, believed by the Incas to be powerful enough to fly to the heavens. Cacao scientists believe the old chunchos could well be the aromatically richest cacaos in the world. The local families are exceptionally proud of their chuncho heritage and many families carefully harvest beans from their oldest trees to make their own chocolate. They will be even prouder to see the first family of condors released in the wild again as a result of Original Beans’ Cusco Chuncho chocolate. Know your bean: chuncho urusayhua. The chuncho cacaos that can be found in Cusco, Junín and Ayacucho, are a range of different varieties rather than a homogenous group. The cacao fruits are small and so are the beans (less than 1g per bean) – but they are very solid and known for their high fat content. The 100% Cusco Chuncho bar from Original Beans is a real rarity, since chuncho cacao has never been used in a pure selection before. Original Beans propagate and raise this pure selection in special nurseries. Tasting notes: notes of dried flowers and grass mark the absolute altitude of this cacao.
