  • About the hot chocolate

    We’ve worked with some of London’s top baristas to craft the ultimate drinking chocolate. Great craft drinking chocolate is simplicity itself, crafted from only three ingredients: milk, single origin chocolate and a splash of hot water to kick start the process.

    Charismatic, biologically diverse and rich in landscapes, Virunga is one of the most important regions in the world. Located in the rift valley, it sits along a uniquely rich geological formation classified as World Heritage Site in 1979. Since 2008, Original Beans has supported local cacao smallholders in earning a stable income producing and preserving organic-certifed Virunga cacao. For every pack of drinking chocolate sold, Original Beans plants or preserves two trees in the Virunga national park.
