This experience introduces the story behind Junglegold, a Bali-based bean-to-bar chocolate maker that has been producing chocolate at origin since 2010 using selected cacao beans from across Indonesia. Built on direct relationships with farmers, the brand focuses on quality, long-term sourcing partnerships, and chocolate-making that reflects the character of Indonesian cacao.
A visit to the Junglegold Bali Factory offers more than a tasting stop. Guests can see how cacao beans are transformed into chocolate through roasting, grinding, mixing, and moulding, while also gaining insight into the people and principles behind the brand. The experience may include chocolate tasting, time at the café for freshly made chocolate drinks, exploration of the cacao garden, and the opportunity to create your own chocolate to take home.
