Description
This bar is made from beans grown in the Sambirano valley in Madagascar, from a variant
that has adapted to the Malagasy climate and soil. In 2015, two Malagasy families bought
the dilapidated government-owned MAVA plantation to produce fine flavour cacao. And they
succeeded! Ambohimena is one of eight farms on the plantation. The unique flavour profile
of Ambohimena was accredited with a Cocoa of Excellence Award in 2019.
MAVA Ambohimena cacao is organically certified and grows under the canopy of indigenous
shade trees – a system that is much needed; over 40 % of Madagascar’s forests have
disappeared over the last 60 year
Winner of bronze award in Academy of chocolate awards in 2024
