Cocoa Bean Origin: Kablon Farms, Philippines

Notes: a special rough ground chocolate, inspired by the Philippine Tableya found throughout the Southeast Asian archipelago since its introduction by the Spanish in the 1600s. Made with fine-flavoured, single-estate cacao from Kablon Farms in South Cotabato (Mindanao, Philippines), the cocoa beans are minimally ground with organic cane sugar.

What is tableya?

Tableya (also spelled tablea) is the Philippines’ original chocolate: tablets of roasted, ground cacao. Families melt it into sikwate, a thick hot chocolate, and champorado, a chocolate rice porridge. Our 70% Tableya is a bean-to-bar homage to that tradition — rough ground rather than fully refined, so you get a bright, crunchy, juicy texture you won’t find in a regular bar.

Tasting Notes: bright, crunchy and juicy

Ingredients: organic cocoa beans, organic cane sugar, cocoa butter
