From the website:

Ocho is an artisan bean-to-bar chocolate maker based in Dunedin, New Zealand. Being a bean-to-bar chocolate maker means that Ocho imports the fermented and dried beans and make the chocolate from scratch. This includes roasting, grinding, conching and tempering the chocolate before moulding it into bars or thins. We use simple equipment and our processes are very hands-on because none of our equipment is automated. The beans are roasted and processed in small batches so some variations are possible from batch to batch. We don’t blend any of our chocolate, so each batch is fully traceable back to the farmer co-operative where the beans were grown.
