Mauna Kea Cacao

Come tour our cacao farm and taste some delicious Hawaii chocolate. You'll get to pick a cacao pod, try fresh cacao, learn about fermentation and drying techniques for the beans, and see some DIY chocolate making equipment. And of course, you'll get to sample chocolate made from our very own beans by multiple bean-to-bar manufacturers. Tours are Thursdays at 10am and 1pm. Come explore, learn, and taste Hawaii's unique chocolate.

If you’re looking for something a little more special, we also offer private tours and workshops. Our private tours take the same approach as our public tours but provide an intimate and more in-depth experience. Plus, you’ll get to try special varieties of chocolate we don’t offer on our public tours. If a private tour isn't for you and you'd like to learn more about bean-to-bar chocolate making and have some hands-on fun as well, we now offer Chocolate Maker Workshops. In these workshops, you will be guided through the entire chocolate making process from bean to bar – from sorting and roasting, winnowing and grinding, conching and tempering – all while learning about the history and culture of Hawaiian cacao. We guarantee that you’ll come away with a truly unique experience!
