Madagascar, Sambirano Valley, 2,000 hectares divided into four farms: Madirofolo Farm, Menavava Farm, Bejofo Farm and Ambolikapiky Farm.
This terroir is highly reputed in the world of Bean-to-Bar and offers high quality beans, mainly Forastero, but also Trinitario and even Criollo (rare in Africa). The genetic richness of the cocoa trees means that the flavours are uniquely interwoven thanks to cross-pollination. Bertil's work doesn't stop there: he uses simple agroforestry techniques to grow other spices that blend in with the chocolates (vanilla, pepper, chilli, etc.) and influence the cocoa trees. It is also one of the oldest certified organic cocoa plantations (since 1997).
