This is great! I was just joking last week during a lecture about "retiring" to Hawaii and growing cacao. My husband says we don't know anything about farming. This post led me to Seneca's blog which looks like a great place to start! I'd love to visit the farms there in the near future. This also led me to your website and as an avid supporter of American bean-to-bar producers I can't wait to try your bars! Maybe next year I will make a trip out for the festival.

Thanks, Brad! Hopefully someday we can achieve a fraction of the great thingsyou've done withchocolate!

Come out and visit us sometime in Oahu!

We almost got a bar ofyourchocolate here, but our "messenger" from Calgary ate it all enroute since it was so good, and all we got were the cool looking packaging!

Two changes we made with the chocolate is that this time we winnowed the chocolate. This time we didn't use a blow dryer to melt the chocolate. Two improvements with the chocolate is that the melanger didn't get clogged this time and everyone put in work.
