Madagascar, the oldest island on the planet, has been growing cacao in the Sambirano Valley since the early 1900s. SOMA calls this origin the “gateway chocolate” as Madagascar is often the portal for 1st timers into the intricate and captivating world of single origin chocolate.
Bertil Akesson’s family-owned estate has been supplying SOMA with their beautiful Madagascan beans since Soma began in 2003. The beans from his Bejofo farm are deep red in colour, a reflection of the prominent red fruit & citrus notes this area is known for.
