Mindanao Island is the southernmost island of note in The Philippines archipelago, yet our only origin north of the equator. The cocoa grown here on the nutrient-rich volcanic slopes of Mount Apo yields a tapestry of honeyed and caramel undertones with a soft citrus overture.

From a moment of indulgence to the perfect gift, there's something in this collection to suit any occasion from the after-dinner treat or the bedtime warm mug of hot chocolate.

Bean-to-Bar Craft | Single-Estate | Taste Discovery


In our dark chocolate, this cocoa gives rich and vibrant aroma of muscavado and red fruit make way to a taste journey of citrus, honey and caramel notes.

When blended with milk for our dark milk chocolate, the result is waves of baked honey and creamy caramel making way for soft citrus and cocoa taste notes.

2 x Philippines, Mindanao Island 50% Dark Milk Chocolate Bars 70g
1 x Philippines, Mindanao Island 73% Dark Chocolate Bar 70g
1 x Philippines, Mindanao Island 73% Luxury Chocolate Thins 150g
1 x Philippines, Mindanao Island 73% Hot Chocolate 245g

Philippines cocoa growing is still made up of multi-crop small holders where they grow cocoa alongside a host of crops, mainly for the local market – think pineapple, coconut, and yams. Our farmers prefer to use the cooperative in Calinan to process the cocoa as their crop isn't large enough to invest in their own fermentary.

Mindanao is the southernmost main island in the Philippines group, and is Firetree’s only cocoa origin found north of the equator. The cocoa we buy directly from our farmer grows on the slopes between Mount Apo and Davao city in the fertile, tropical rainforest-like conditions.
