Reasons to Love

A collaboration chocolate with rare tea curator - Pekoe & Imp.

Honey Orchid (蜜兰香, Mi Lan Xiang) is a dancong (单枞) tea cultivated in the Phoenix Mountain (凤凰山, Feng Huang Shan) of Guangdong Province. Made into a Hongcha (Western style black tea), this tea is naturally sweet and fruity, mimicking natural aroma of fruits and flowers.

The first lot curated from the Spring 2010 harvest in Shen Ya Village (深垭村) had them smitten. Eight years of aging resulted in a smooth and creamy tea with very low astringency. Its characteristic lychee fragrance and red date sweetness complemented the biscuity Kokoa Kamili cacao from Tanzania perfectly.

The most recent lot retained all that they loved about this tea. Hand-harvested from Tian Zhu Keng village (甜竹坑村) in Spring 2020, it has lovely lychee and mango fragrance along with the typical red date sweetness and low astringency. Paired with the same Kokoa Kamili cacao, it is a delicious chocolate to be savoured slowly.

Tasting Notes: Lingering lychee sweetness with a biscuity undertone

Cacao Estate

Kokoa Kamili

Started in 2012 by friends Brian LoBue and Simran Bindra, Kokoa Kamili is one of the few African-origin cocoas which have been universally praised around the world. The team, which is based in Tanzania’s Kilombero Valley, has achieved a remarkably consistent post-harvest process, setting a standard in the region by buying wet beans at a premium and fermenting & drying them in a central location. This garners them an exceptionally fruity and rich cocoa, grown right in the nation’s Udzungwa Mountains National Park. Kokoa Kamili now works with nearly 3000 farmers in the region, all of whom get paid a premium immediately for their wet cacao, lessening their workload while also increasing their income.
