About the maker

Brazilian tree-to-bar chocolate maker Mestiço has been growing cacao for over 40 years, since 1971, at Fazenda Bonança, in Itacaré, Bahia. Brazil, once the biggest exporters of cacao worldwide, is slowly seeing the rise of chocolate makers producing at origin, using cacao grown on its own soil. The Galvão Kamei family runs its tree-to-bar operation – Mestiço – from planting the trees to crafting the chocolate all in Brazil. The name “Mestiço” (pronounced Mæsteesso) means “mixed race”. It is a reference of both the Trinitarios that grow on the farm and of the mixed heritage of the chocolate maker: Japanese and Brazilian.

The beans

The beans used to make this bar are the Catongo white albino bean of the Forastero variety, grown and cultivated at the Fazenda Bonança farm in Brazil.
