Maui Ku'ia Estate Chocolate

Our very first chocolate tour ever and it was amazing 👏 The owner actually did the tour himself and was very knowledgeable about all things chocolate 🍫 The samples were delicious, watching how the machines work was fascinating and you get a $25 gift card at the end to use in store or online! Sadly, it was raining so we didn't get to enjoy the bar on the roof where they pair cocktails and liquors with the chocolate samples (bummer but understandable) but overall I would 💯 recommend doing this if your in the area!

Did both the farm and factory tour today and would without hesitation recommend this to anyone and everyone. I’m a long time chocoholic and felt like I knew a lot about how it was made, but I learned so much! It was great to hear about the entire process from growing to shipping, and to learn that this is one of the few farms anywhere who both grow their own cacao and make their own chocolate. Our tour guides were so informative and knowledgeable and also humorous. Th tours went by in a flash, and involved chocolate tastings, coupons and vouchers for use in their store or online. I definitely plan to buy copious amounts of their chocolate for myself and for all my friends and souvenirs.

Calling all chocolate fans! If you’re not a dark chocolate fan, they do have some chocolates like their sugar free OMG (Orange Mango Guava) that may still wow you! And if you still aren’t interested in consuming chocolates, then come for their flavor milkshakes! They have chocolate tasting session, chocolate and wine pairings, private tour session with tasting hosted by the founder, or if you are a chocolate connoisseur and just want to do it on your own, then get the order list and then select the chocolates you want to taste - you can definitely do two 9 flight tasting that will pretty much get you to taste all they have. If you’re planning to sit down and have a drink or chocolate tasting, you also get a FREE 5 flavor tasting per person per day - meaning you can come every day if you want - but it’ll be the same 5 free flavors. From lemongrass, to single origin Maui dark chocolates, I thoroughly enjoyed very chocolate I had. Personal preference, I preferred the sugar free dark chocolates better as the no milk addition made the flavor stronger which I prefer but another member in my party preferred lighter flavor and so the dark milk tasted better. So choose what fits your taste buds. Service was fast, friendly and they can guide you in what would be better if you need help to decide. They did warn my party that we were getting a lot of chocolates, but we didn’t listen because we LOVE chocolates and finished it all without any disappointment. The atmosphere and view from the rooftop seating was nice and wished we had more time to be able to enjoy eating, drinking and lounging. One last thing which makes this a great local Maui business to support - they donate ALL profit to charity! You found a new supporter in person and online for my future orders.
