Tanzanian cacao from small farmers around the Kilombero Valley offers a dark chocolate with honeysuckle aroma and sharp notes of wine, lemon and tart cherries.
Kokoa Kamili is a fermentary located in Tanzania’s Kilombero Valley and Its founders have a history in international development in southern and eastern Africa. Kokoa Kamili buys ‘wet’ cacao from farmers at a premium and then continues with post-harvest processes. By doing so, they reduce the farmers workload with a higher compensation for their cacao in an area historically known for some of the lowest prices of cacao in the country.
