Description

Islands Hot Chocolate. Islands use the finest flavour cocoa from two locations in the Caribbean, from their own farms in St Vincent and the Grenadines as well as from their partner farms in the Dominican Republic. Sounds standard? It’s not. Most cocoa comes from West Africa where it is bought by large multi-national companies via numerous traders to mass-produce industrial chocolate in massive factories. Traceability is opaque, environmental issues greenwashed and ethics sit a long way behind profit considerations, if at all.. Flavor profile: Chocolate.
