Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes: This option includes only our condensed 1.5 hour 10+ bar chocolate tasting. It does not include our farm tour.
On your way to our farm, you'll drive through some of the Big Island's rarely experienced scenic back roads. Our farm is 5 minutes from Hilo and 1.7 miles up Puia Road, in historic ulu, sugarcane, macadamia, and cattle land.
Upon arrival at the farm, sit above the canopy and enjoy the stunning ocean and valley views from the Honolii Orchards Tasting Room. Explore the Hamakua Coast’s agricultural history and chat casually before farm tour guests head out to tour the orchards with their guide. We'll discover the secrets of cacao farming and the mysteries of cacao fermentation.
Guests on our 1.5 hour chocolate tasting will remain in the tasting room for a condensed and curated experience.
Afterward, delve into chocolate's history, from ancient Mesoamerica to the modern craft movement, before savoring diverse craft chocolates from across Hawaii and experiencing the single-origin nuances as genetics and environment meld flavors.
This tour offers a comprehensive education, tastings, and a serene pace, leaving you enriched and knowledgeable. You'll return home with lasting memories and an enhanced appreciation for cacao and chocolate.
