LetterPress Satocao Sao Tome 70% Limited Edition

LetterPress Satocao Sao Tome 70% Limited Edition

$20.00

The first and only São Tomé bar made in North America - Letterpress had to air freight it in. São Tomé and Príncipe are located on the western equatorial coast of Africa. The former Portuguese colony, the country has a terrible cast of slavery. Now one of the most stable democracies in Africa, São Tomé has some of the most unique soil and climate conditions for cacao but remains extremely poor. Satocao was established in 2015 as a certified organic co-op of over 400 farmers from seven communities. Letterpress was able to secure a very small amount of the very best beans they sampled to create a unique blend for this limited edition!

Maker Information

Based in Los Angeles, California, LetterPress Chocolate was founded by high school friends David and Corey. Their journey into cacao began during a vacation to St. Lucia in 2011 when they tasted cacao pulp for the first time. In 2013, they started a chocolate blog called "Little Brown Squares" and began making their own chocolate. Their passion grew, leading to the opening of a factory with tours. LetterPress sources the world's best cacao, roasts each batch carefully, and stone grinds over several days to highlight the unique flavors of each origin they use.
