Feitoria do Cacao – White with Matcha 42%

About the bar

This white chocolate has been crafted using natural cocoa butter as well as Japanese Matcha and Sencha teas. Feitoria partnered with Chá Camélia, importers of fine Japanese teas to create this bar. Sencha, which translates as ‘steamed tea’ is an infused green tea very popular in Japan. Matcha is a highly valued fine ground green tea powder, used in traditional tea ceremonies.

Combined, the Sencha and Matcha’s intense, almost savoury flavours make them the perfect contrast to the sweetness of the white chocolate. Earthy hints of nuts round out the bar’s flavour.

About the maker

Feitoria do Cacao was established by Tomoko Suga and Sue Tavares after an eye-opening trip to see the poor living conditions of cocoa farmers in São Tomé and Principe. They remain committed to paying a premium price for their cocoa beans in an effort to reduce the economic disparities between cocoa farmers and chocolate producers. Based in Portugal, they hand-craft their chocolate bars in micro batches to accentuate the natural variety of flavours in each delivery of cocoa beans.
