Two single origin products unified in one for the perfect combination of chocolate and coffee. After experimenting with a lot of combinations, the fusion of the earthy yet fruity flavors of Idukki and the profound, fruity berry notes of Deman Estate convinced us. The two harmonize very well and melt together when being enjoyed. After the first edition last year, the exclusive chocolate is back again in another limited edition.


A few months ago, Fabian travelled to Kenya and visited farms, processing plants and a research center. Read more about the trip on our blog.


Idukki 78% tastes unconventional, exotic, earthy with a dark fruit note. The chocolate is also available without coffee. Details information about the coffee can be found here.

Produced from bean to bar at the Garçoa manufacture in Zurich Wollishofen (organic certification CH-BIO-038).


Garçoa is a young Swiss enterprise with a philosophy that does not seem to be all that different from ours. The big difference is they're not in coffee – but in chocolate. The whole process from bean to bar is done by Fränzi and her team in small batches. They start by selecting the cocoa by hand, then peel, roast and grind it, add some organic cane sugar and finally pour it into their individually created moulds. They refrain from using any additives. Thus, all the flavor in the chocolate bars comes straight from the cocoa beans and yet – or perhaps because of that – the bar are totally different from each other.


They started at home in their kitchen: cocoa beans were roasted in the oven, chopped up in a nut grinder, the skins were blown off with a hair dryer... at the beginning, everything was very inconvenient. And yet: at the end of the day there was always a delicious aroma in the air. Soon they were building sustainable trade chains for minimal quantities and experimenting with different sizes, thicknesses and surfaces for the bars – and of course, designing the beautiful packaging.
