Ander- Hand Brew Cocoa Beans – TOGO (kekeli)

Hand Brew Cocoa Beans – Togo (Kekeli) – 180g

Origin: Mount Agou, Plateaux Region | Light Roasted | 12 Brews

Description:
Sourced from the lush, forested foothills of Mount Agou in Togo’s Plateaux region, Kekeli cocoa is a unique expression of West African terroir. The cocoa trees grow in thick tropical forests, nourished by a rich humus layer formed by acacia, teak, and native flora — lending the beans a distinct flavor signature.

Produced by the women-led Kekeli Cooperative (65% female farmers, under the leadership of Abra Benczedi), the cocoa is centrally fermented and grown under intercropped systems with mango and banana trees, supporting biodiversity and sustainability.

Expect a round, full-bodied profile, rich in dark chocolate mousse notes, complemented by a burnt honey sweetness and subtle forest depth.
