O'Payo cocoa beans are organically grown in the remote & highly protected Bosawas Natural Reserve in the northern mountains of Nicaragua. It is the largest nature reserve in Central America & was declared a biosphere reserve by UNESCO in 1997. With these beans we sustainably handcraft our chocolate
from bean to bar at the foot of the South Downs in Hassocks, West Sussex. We carefully roast, stone grind & conch the O'Payo beans into chocolate over 2 weeks. It is then left to mature in large blocks, developing naturally unique & complex flavours before we temper, mould & package ready to be enjoyed.Zero Waste Packaging - Recyclable, Glueless, Compostable, Acid Free
