Manoa Flavours of Hawaii: Guava Vegan Milk 50%

Cocoa Origin: United States
Producer Country: United States
Weight: 60 g

Guava arrived in Hawaii during the early stages of Western contact in the 1700s and quickly became one of the islands' most abundant fruits. Known for its tropical flavour and distinctive blend of tartness and sweetness, guava is enjoyed across Hawaii fresh, as juice, or as jellies and jams. In this form, it blends beautifully with the organic coconut milk and local cocoa (which already has an inherently tropical, fruity quality). The mouthfeel combines textures of creamy coconut, pulpy jam, and fudge-y chocolate. This tart, bittersweet profile is something I can't get enough of. So good!

Manoa Flavours of Hawaii: Guava Vegan Milk 50%

Hawaii is the only US state with a climate suitable for cultivating cacao trees and is home to a small but thriving craft chocolate scene. Since 2010, Manoa has been crafting bean-to-bar chocolate, primarily working with Hawaiian-grown cocoa. The name "Mānoa" is derived from the Hawaiian word meaning solid, vast, and deep—a fitting representation of the company's commitment to quality and sustainability. By buying directly from local farmers, Manoa has established long-lasting relationships and, by cutting out intermediaries, pays much higher rates while providing hands-on support to the farmers. Their beans are grown on two principal house-run estates, but they collaborate with seven more across Hawaii. They have also developed a line called “Flavours of Hawaii,” which showcases locally grown ingredients that are deeply relevant to Hawaii’s society and cuisine, offering a taste of the islands' rich cultural and culinary heritage.

Oʻahu, the most populous and third-largest of the Hawaiian Islands, lies at the northern tip of the archipelago. Its vibrant heart is Honolulu, the state capital, which is home to nearly 70% of Hawaii's 1.5 million residents. The island stretches 71 km in length and 48 km in width, featuring two distinct shield volcanoes: the Waiʻanae and Koʻolau Ranges, separated by the central Oʻahu Plain. Famous for its tourism industry, Oʻahu draws over five million visitors annually to its pristine white sand beaches and clear waters. Inhabited since the 3rd century A.D., its modern population reflects a blend of modern American culture with the enduring traditions of the Native Hawaiian people. This vibrant mix creates a unique contrast between ancient heritage and contemporary life, embodying Hawaii's essence as a cultural crossroads and a paradise for residents and visitors alike.
