Located 150âŻkm north of Venezuela, the island of Grenada is home to an exceptional volcanic terroir. On its fertile land, local farmers grow the beans used to craft our LâEsterre 75% dark chocolate.
Renowned for its spices, the island offers a rich and generous soil that gives this cacao its unique character.
L’Esterre Estate has been owned by the Ramdhanny family for over 70 years. The single estate is located in the northeast of the island, on the outskirts of the rainforest.
The family grows cocoa and nutmeg in strict accordance with the rules of organic agriculture and agroforestry, thus maintaining the richness and fertility of the soil.
The beans are harvested during the dry season, between November and April, then fermented at the property for 7 to 8 days before being dried in the sun for 6 to 7 days.
This Grenada 75% dark chocolate is the result of true bean-to-bar expertise, from cocoa bean to bar. L’Esterre 75 reveals the full potential of an exceptional terroir, sublimated by ORFĂVEâs craftsmanship.
