All things cacao the favourite, and most important place for chocolate making is the farm. The producers have more control over the flavour of the final chocolate than the chocolate maker. Great beans make great chocolate, beans which have not been harvested, fermented and dried in a knowledgeable, experienced way, will never be making great chocolate. Like fine wine, fine chocolate first requires amazing fruit, and the farmers, the producers are the ones providing these amazing fruits.
