History.... Ghanaian cacao beans have long been known for their quality and depth of flavor. The beans are grown on small, family owned farms; and, until recently, have been the source of exported cacao beans to European and American chocolate factories and confectioneries. The cocoa industry has traditionally been government controlled.
Cacao is not an easy plant to grow. It requires a hot, rainy climate and will only bear fruit in countries within 20 degrees of the equator. Though it needs warm temperatures to thrive, it must be shielded from direct sun, and grows best under the shade of taller trees.
Ghana flavor notes are deep, classic cocoa flavors that lends balance to more complex beans. It has an annual caocao production of 740,000 tons. Ghana set the standards for intensely flavored bulk cacoa. Brought from the Carribbean islands in 1880 by Tetteh Quarshie, cacao is now a national treasure.
