Almost all the cocoa grown in Vanuatu comes from this one island: Malekula. This sparsely populated island is a two-day boat journey from the capital of Port Vila. But the rich volcanic soil here yields a cocoa bean with a complex flavor and hints of cherry, white grape and citrus that makes the journey worthwhile.

Maker
FiretreeFiretree Chocolate sources their beans from remote islands with rich volcanic soil for some very unique tasting chocolate. Their name firetree, is a nick name for the flame hued pods found on the cocoa trees that are found on these volcanic islands. Each bar is made with single estate cacao, lending to the incredibly distinct taste of each chocolate variety.
Cacao Region
Malekula Island, VanuatuMalakula Island, also spelled Malekula, is the second-largest island in the country of Vanuatu, in the Pacific Ocean. Despite its size, there are nearly thirty different languages spoken on the island, and the largest sector of the economy is dedicated to the cultivation of coconuts. In recent years, a small number of farmers have shifted focus to cacao, but coconut remains overwhelmingly dominant, a fact which is evident with just a quick tour of the isle.
Firstly, the packaging is perfection itself - well designed, beautiful and informative. The bar itself has a smoky aroma, luxurious texture and bright taste - it flowed through the tasting notes exactly for me, first white grape then lemon and cherry and this indescribable nutty woody smoky something. Incredibly delicious.
Wow I really love this one! Very complex flavor, deep and smooth. I taste the cherry and white grape, though I don’t really taste the lemon. I also get sweet notes of vanilla and honey. Finishes with a flavor of classic cocoa.
The bar was thin, but not too thin—enough for a deep flavor and lasting mouthfeel.
Best dark chocolate i have ever tasted.
Like all the Firetree chocolates, it's beautifully packaged and deeply flavored, with a lovely melt on the palate.
Deliciously smooth chocolate with bright fruit flavors. One of my favorites.
