About the maker

Rosa Canina was originally founded as an organic ice cream company in 2008 in Berlin, Germany. The shop was opened by Reimar Philipps, who was then joined by Moritz Weber in 2014, and the two of them have run it together ever since. In 2020, they expanded to work more directly with cacao, where they brought in Zoe as Head Chocolate Maker. Today, they are a small team focusing on b0th of ice cream and chocolate. Rosa Canina’s goal is simple: to make chocolate that tastes exceptional. Their curiosity to discover why this is the case has led them to traceable origins, honest sourcing, and producers who take cacao as seriously as they take chocolate. Not only is their cacao traceable, but their sugar too, prioritising honesty in sourcing.

The beans

The beans for this bar are sourced from Kokoa Kamili, a social enterprise fermentary who operate by purchasing ‘wet’ cocoa beans directly from smallholder farmers, and then ferment and dry the beans following its post-harvest protocol. The cacao beans are all sourced from the Kilombero Valley, Morogoro Region, so as to raise the profile of Tanzanian cocoa.
