Discover artisan chocolate, made bean to bar for the purest flavours. We use the world’s great single estate cacaos which are like fine wines, each with its own unique flavour. To preserve these precious flavours, we make our chocolate in small batches, at low temperatures, taking up to 21 days, whereas industrial chocolate takes just a few hours. All our cacaos are ethically and sustainably sourced. Being a cocoa farmer himself, Willie puts the farmers at the heart of how he does business, buying all his cacao Direct Trade, paying a higher price premium than Fair Trade. They are all traditionally grown under shade trees which promotes both flavour and bio-diversity.
Willie Harcourt-Cooze, cacao farmer, pioneer and chocolate fanatic, started out buying a cocoa farm in Venezuela 20 years ago, and set up the UK’s first artisan ‘bean to bar’ chocolate factory in 2008. His passion is to inroduce everyone to the beautiful flavours of real craft made chocolate.
