Sao Tome e Principe

essence of cacao

Cacao. The source of chocolate. Corallo. Some of the finest cacao in the world. Imagine a blend of caramelized cream and the fresh, intense flavor of newly-harvested cacao. Palets of ganache topped with a whole cacao bean.  Sao Tome e Principe, the essence of the bean.
