The story:

This white chocolate with artisanal matcha came about as result of a gourmet collaboration with Cacao Experience, a chocolate maker from Strasbourg which places as much importance on the quality of the cocoa beans as it does on where the beans come from and how they are produced –  organically and from agroforestry and ethical sectors.
