Reasons to Love

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

Firetree

Firetree Chocolate is dedicated to crafting rare, single estate chocolate with a true sense of place. They source their cocoa from small, remote volcanic islands in the South Pacific and Madagascar, where the mineral-rich soil creates some of the most distinctive taste notes in the world. The name “Firetree” comes from the cocoa tree’s flame-colored pods, and from its base in Cambridgeshire, England, the company follows a meticulous bean-to-bar process to preserve each origin’s character. Committed to fairness and sustainability, Firetree works directly with farmers or their co-ops, paying premiums that support communities and protect landscapes.

Malekula Island, Vanuatu

Malakula 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.

One of my favorite dark chocolate bars

I hadn't tried chocolate originating from lava fields but after having this, I bought their entire line up of minis. I think the minis are a perfect size for this because their chocolate is usually rather dark but each bar presents a great set of flavors that you can pick up and confirm with their flavor notes. It's a pleasure to try their chocolate and I'm so glad I have access to them here

cherry and white grape, vanilla and honey

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.

Fantastic.

Best dark chocolate i have ever tasted.

Deeply flavored

Like all the Firetree chocolates, it's beautifully packaged and deeply flavored, with a lovely melt on the palate.
