Tasting notes
The unique flavor characteristics from land and sea in Islay have lent themselves to our chocolate in a surprisingly seductive way. Our previous aging experiment with the Laphroaig cask and our Rain Harvest 2015 “Light” edition resulted in one of our most critically acclaimed editions thus far. So, we decided to try it again—twice—with two new harvests and an additional Islay cask.

Our cacao comes from non-certified organic farms. We personally know each of the farmers and their farms and conduct several monitoring visits per year to ensure no synthetic or chemical inputs are used.
To'ak has long gone well beyond Fair Trade, paying up to 700% above the local market price for wet cacao. While cacao prices are always fluctuating, To'ak continues to pay the true cost of cacao.
