Chocolarder – Three Mountains, Ghana, Milk 50% with Cornish Sea Salt

About the bar

This bar really reminds us of salted fudge – bright, salty, and creamy. The 50% milk chocolate has been combined with salt harvested using traditional techniques down on the Lizard peninsula of Cornwall; a short drive from Chocolarder’s factory.

About the maker

Chocolarder crafts its chocolate in Falmouth, Cornwall. Chocolarder’s exciting line of fine single-origin bars and delightfully innovative locally-inspired inclusions use only top quality ingredients that succeed in doing better for the environment and the communities at their source. The whole company has at its heart an ethos of “ethical transparency”. Mike Longman – founder and chocolate maker – is unwavering in his commitment to a truly transparent and sustainable production process, even to the point of transporting his beans to Falmouth by sailboat.

The beans

The beans for this bar have been sourced from Three Mountains, in the Mirissa Hills Forest Reserve of Ghana. The cooperative grows a mixture of Criollo, Amelonado, Forastero, and Trinitario beans, which are brought together to create an incredible flavour profile. The Chocolarder team were lucky enough to visit the cocoa farming communities of Three Mountains Cocoa in Ghana, to learn about their culture and how Leslie has broken the mould bringing multiple communities and chiefs together to grow their cocoa sustainably and sell to the quality market.
