David Menkes loves chocolate, but didn’t love how most chocolate tastes artificial and all the same. So in 2014 he founded LetterPress Chocolate as a small batch bean to bar chocolate company featuring single origin cacao from around the world.
He travels to meet cacao farmers in Peru, Guatemala, Belize, the Dominican Republic and beyond to source cacao beans that are truly exceptional in both flavour and part of a truly ethical supply chain. See more
