Hola, I am Jose
I am a Venezuelan origin Bean to Bar chocolate-maker based in London.
I work directly with cocoa farmers, cocoa associations and small cocoa producers, offering a transparent trade, benefiting the local communities and guaranteeing the cacao origins, sustainability and quality.
'Mayoy' means friend in our ancestral language – we love making friends and sharing our Cacao expertise and passion everywhere we go! We hope you enjoy and love our Cacao as much as we do!
Our mission is to make Venezuelan cacao known in the world and for people to choose bean to bar!
We’re International Award-Winners
We’re proud to say, our chocolate is recognised globally for our uncompromising quality and outstanding flavour.
