MAROU CHOCOLATE

IT ALL BEGINS WITH CACAO

IN 2011, SAMUEL MARUTA AND VINCENT MOUROU WENT SOUL-SEARCHING INTO THE JUNGLES OF VIETNAM. THEY INSTEAD FOUND CACAO, THE LIKES OF WHICH THEY HAD NEVER TASTED.

THEY IMMEDIATELY GOT TO WORK, CREATING MAROU FAISEURS DE
CHOCOLAT AND BECOMING VIETNAM’S FIRST BEAN-TO-BAR CHOCOLATE MAKER BY CONTROLLING EVERY STAGE OF PRODUCTION.
THEIR JOURNEY HAS SINCE GROWN TO GATHER THE BEST FARMERS,
ENGINEERS AND PASTRY CHEFS ALONG THE WAY.

WE TAKE GREAT PLEASURE IN PUSHING THE BOUNDARIES OF CHOCOLATE MAKING, USING 100% LOCAL INGREDIENTS,
CRAFTED ENTIRELY IN OUR FACTORY IN SAIGON.

IT ALL BEGINS WITH CACAO

MAROU CHOCOLATE BARS ARE MADE FROM CACAO BEANS CAREFULLY SELECTED FROM SIX PROVINCES IN SOUTHERN VIETNAM:
DAK LAK, LAM DONG, DONG NAI, BA RIA, TIEN GIANG & BEN TRE.

EACH ORIGIN HAS ITS OWN CHARACTERISTIC: THE RICHNESS OF THE SOIL, THE FREQUENCY OF THE RAINS, THE CLIMATE OF EACH TERROIR LEND DISTINCTIVE FLAVORS TO THE CACAOS.
WE AIM IS TO BRING YOU ALL THEIR SUBTLE ACCENTS IN OUR RANGE OF SINGLE ORIGIN VIETNAM CHOCOLATES.
