Flavour Profile

A profile the craft trade already knows.

Cacao from the Semuliki region of Bundibugyo carries a flavour vocabulary the specialty trade has already standardised — a rich, rounded profile suited to dark bars and single-origin work.

  • Chocolate-fudge base. A heavy, rounded chocolate depth at the core of the profile.
  • Raisin & dried fig. Dark dried-fruit sweetness through the mid-palate.
  • Burnt caramel. A toasted sugar edge with mild bitterness and a clean earthiness.
  • Balanced acidity. Enough brightness to keep the profile lively rather than flat.
Sourcing

Smallholder-grown, traceable to origin.

Grown on smallholder agroforestry plots of one to two hectares in Bundibugyo District, fermented and sun-dried at origin, then graded and packed at our Kampala operation. Single-origin traceability is available on request.

  • Sample lots welcome. One-kilogram trial lots before you commit to volume.
  • For craft & specialty makers. Suited to bean-to-bar, single-origin and small-batch work.
  • Flexible pack sizes. 25 kg and 50 kg food-grade export sacks.
