Tiến Giang is a province in Vietnam's Mekong Delta; the birthplace of cacao in Vietnam. The tropical area is low-lying with a vast network of rivers, rice paddies, swamplands and small canals that reach far into the farmland. 20 small farms are organized as fermentary groups. Wet beans are transported to one central place for fermenting in wooden boxes.
The beans are from Marou Faiseurs de Chocolat in Saigon who work directly with the farmers. The cacao is special to Soma, not only for its exceptional flavors, but also as a fond reminder of a beautiful friendship that started during a monsoon in Saigon.

Maker
SOMA ChocolatemakerSoma was founded by David Castellan and Cynthia Leung in 2003. A rarity in the industry, Soma are adept at both chocolate making, and also a fantastic chocolatier. At the time, ‘bean to bar’ chocolate wasn’t necessarily even a term! Anybody who knew how to make chocolate were those who worked for big chocolate companies. Soma was one of the first to tackle the micro batch chocolate bar production. Besides their wonderful line of chocolate bars, Soma also uses their chocolate to make ganache for truffles, and other chocolate treats. Soma's high quality chocolate bars have been awarded multiple times over the years. First starting off in a 400 square foot tiny corner of an old whiskey distillery, Soma now has two chocolate factories in Toronto, Canada.
Cacao Region
Ben Tre, VietnamBen Tre is a province in the Mekong Delta area of southern Vietnam, southwest of Ho Chi Minh City. During the Tet Offensive in 1968, Ben Tre City was nearly destroyed by anti-communist bombing, but the province has since recovered, now home to a strong tourism market due to its location along the Mekong Delta. Otherwise, much of the region's economy is based in rice production and tropical agriculture, including notable amounts of coconut and cacao.
