Wonder your with knowledge of cocoa. - The gate access is trickie. There is a keypad to gain access to the road to the farm but getting out was difficult. There is no keypad to exit the property. Luckily, a car was attempting to access the property without knowledge of the keypad and code. Our car and another car was trying to exit so we educated the incoming car. They got the gate open and the other attendee car and ours were able to get out.

Have been practicing for this trip as long as I can remember - The tour was great! We entered a beautiful door that was given to them. We learnt about the cocoa trees and the other trees in the orchard that all play a roll in the ecosystem for these trees. We were able to see the seed pods in all of their stages, we were able to taste the pulp around the seed, and eat the bean if we wanted to. If you like dark chocolate you will most likely like the raw seed. After we tasted the pulp of the cocoa bean, we were welcomed into the tasting hut. Where we tasted 7-8 different chocolate combinations. We tried to name the different tastes of each chocolate combination. Each one had fruit, honey, or nuts mixed in. They also had tea and coffee options made from the cocoa plants. It was an enlightening experience for sure.
I also want to mention that if you want to take this tour, you should plan on renting a car to get there and back. We got lift to take us out there, but I could not get lift to come back. The owner drove us off of the property to a church and we were able to get lift from there. Thank goodness!

Incredible Chocalate taste experience! - This tour could not be more perfect. You travel down dirt roads with views of North Shore going towards a monastery. You talk about cacao production and all the agriculture research development they have done and are doing. You taste raw cacao seeds, fermented Cacau, roasted Cacau underneath the trees. Bug spray provided too! You finally get many, many Chocalate samples hinting at their flavor profiles. These are all dark Chocalate and they do have milk Chocalate available too. I have kids of the internet generation and phones were willingly put away to listen to Katie and her talk the entire time. WOW! Honestly this and shark cage diving made the Hawai’i trip so memorable. Wife bought too much chocolate and almost joined the Hawaii Chocalate club. They have a manufacturing tour and stores in Waikaki as well. They also have different cacao fields across Hawaii islands with different flavored cacao. I cannot recommend this tour enough. Keep up this great tour!

Give this tour a shot you don’t won’t to miss out. - The guide was so knowledgeable and the chocolate was fantastic. They even went out of their way to get us back to the road. Dan took his time to drive us out of there for us to uber back to Waikīkī. They supplied bug spray for you and made sure you could answer questions and were super helpful and friendly.

Fabulous Tour of the Cacao Orchard - This was a fantastic tour! One of the highlights of our trip. Driving to the site is a bit of an experience itself since it is quite a distance down more than one gravel road, but we really didn't have any trouble finding the location and it added a sense of being in the very middle of the farm. We were in a small group of about 8 people and our guide Kate was engaging and very knowledgeable. We were greeted with cacao tea (which was delicious) and offered bug spray if needed. Kate then walked us through the cacao orchard detailing not only the cacao trees, but other plants and fruits that are grown on the farm and giving the background for the inclusion of those plants on the farm. We stopped at a small open area when she opened some cacao pods and we were able to taste the fruit. She explained all the processing steps and welcomed any questions we had. We then walked to a open seating area where we had the actual chocolate tasting - about 10 different varieties. It was simply a lovely experience for all the senses! Oh, and did I mention the beautiful peacocks on the drive in?

An Excellent Tour - We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the farm. Everything was organized and professional from start to finish. Starting with cacao tea, bug spray and a banana, Katie and Kayleigh were warm and personable. They were extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of cacao farming. The chocolate tasting at the end was fun and very informative. Give these two young women a raise!
