Changzhi Pingtung 70%

In Pingtung, Taiwan, you will discover one of the world's shortest journeys from cacao tree to bar. In the township of Changzhi, the dedicated team at Maya Farm cultivate cacao trees intercropped with coconut palms, banana trees, and an aquaponics system. This thoughtful approach fosters land biodiversity and exemplifies sustainable eco-agriculture.

This limited release batch of chocolate is crafted in collaboration with our friends at Kasama Chocolate, located on Granville Island in Vancouver, BC. It features cacao beans grown and fermented on a single estate: Maya Farm, located in the Changzhi township of Pingtung, southern Taiwan.

Maya Farm’s cacao trees tend to produce fruit-forward beans, showcasing tropical fruit, apricot, plum, raisin notes with a hint of juicy acidity.

The artwork for this special chocolate bar was beautifully illustrated by Vancouver-based artist Ann Liao, celebrating the harmony of an quaponics system in Maya Farm.
