   Marou spent its early years scouring the Vietnamese countryside for great cacao. In trial and error, many wonderful characters and got lost in extraordinary places. The adventure came to include budding engineers, old soldiers and die-hard pastry chefs. A curious taste for chocolate drew them all into Marou’s tent. 
    Marou’s chocolate has a particular complexity and variability, because unlike most chocolate makers, they can create theirs from beans they select at the source. This means they have control of everything, from farm to bar.
