Join us from Bean to Bar on an exclusive tour of Maui Ku‘ia Estate’s Cacao Farm and Chocolate Factory!
Your journey begins at the Ku‘ia Estate Chocolate Factory, where Founder and CEO Dr. Gunars Valkirs will personally guide you through our production facility. You’ll get a behind-the-scenes look at the chocolate-making process, see the specialized machinery in action, and taste samples at various stages of production — including some not available to the public.
After the factory tour, you’ll meet your farm guide and head up to our private 20-acre cacao estate, nestled in the foothills of the West Maui Mountains. There, you’ll explore our cacao trees, learn about hands-on harvesting techniques, and complete your bean-to-bar journey with an exclusive nine-piece tasting of our award-winning chocolate in our open-air tree hale.
We look forward to welcoming you to this unforgettable and delicious experience!
