From our 2025 journey to the autonomous island of Bougainville in Papua New Guinea, this cacao from the Women’s Cocoa Cooperative Wakanai returns in a softer, more rounded expression.

Working with the same carefully fermented and sun-dried beans grown by 55 dedicated women farmers, we wanted to explore how the flavour evolves in a more mellow recipe. Back in Stroud at The Cacao House, we stone grind in small batches for 96 hours, this time crafting a 50% chocolate with oat and coconut sugar.

The addition of oat transforms the profile completely. The bright citrus found in the higher percentage fades, replaced by deep caramel warmth and a creamy, almost biscuit-like sweetness. The texture becomes exceptionally smooth and comforting, with a lingering toffee note and gentle cocoa backbone.

Still expressive of Bougainville’s cacao, but in a more indulgent, accessible style — this is a bar for those who love depth without intensity.

Limited edition, made from the same remarkable origin.

Ingredients: cacao beans (50%), evaporated coconut nectar, gluten free oats
