Whilst other chocolate makers may add extra ingredients to create festive flavour, we prefer to recommend choosing your favourite taste notes that come purely from the cocoa bean itself. Certain of our chocolate bars are perfect for the Christmas and winter season: Madagascar's Sambirano Valley 84% dark chocolate stands out as a holiday treat with its deep red fruit undertones and distinctive hint of raspberry. Papua New Guinea's Karkar Island 72% chocolate, a 2024 Great Taste award-winner, has the ripe blackberry and rich treacle notes that are perfect for a winter’s day. The cocoa from Mindanao Island in the Philippines at 73% offers a blend of honeyed, caramel tones - tastes we love to experience at Christmastime.  For those seeking a no-added-sugar experience, another of our 2024 Great Taste award-winners, the Solomon Islands, Guadalcanal 100% cocoa, delivers a deep cocoa richness with a hint of dates, another perennial favourite of the season.
