At Erite Sphere Ltd., we take pride in the meticulous handling of our cocoa. Our beans are sourced directly from the lush cocoa belts of Nigeria, undergoing rigorous fermentation and sun-drying processes to ensure the development of the rich, deep chocolate notes that Nigerian cocoa is famous for.
Our flagship product, sourced from the most fertile regions of Nigeria during the peak harvest season. These beans are characterized by their large size, high fat content, and deep, complex chocolate profile. Each batch undergoes a rigorous fermentation and sun-drying process to meet strict international export standards.
• Bean Count: 90–100 per 100g
