from Google & Yelp"Calling all chocolate fans! If you’re not a dark chocolate fan, they do have some chocolates like their sugar free OMG (Orange Mango Guava) that may still wow you! And if you still aren’t interested in consuming chocolates, then come for their flavor milkshakes! They have chocolate tasting session, chocolate and wine pairings, private tour session with tasting hosted by the founder, or if you are a chocolate connoisseur and just want to do it on your own, then get the order list and then select the chocolates you want to taste - you can definitely do two 9 flight tasting that will pretty much get you to taste all they have. If you’re planning to sit down and have a drink or chocolate tasting, you also get a FREE 5 flavor tasting per person per day - meaning you can come every day if you want - but it’ll be the same 5 free flavors. From lemongrass, to single origin Maui dark chocolates, I thoroughly enjoyed very chocolate I had. Personal preference, I preferred the sugar free dark chocolates better as the no milk addition made the flavor stronger which I prefer but another member in my party preferred lighter flavor and so the dark milk tasted better. So choose what fits your taste buds. Service was fast, friendly and they can guide you in what would be better if you need help to decide. They did warn my party that we were getting a lot of chocolates, but we didn’t listen because we LOVE chocolates and finished it all without any disappointment. The atmosphere and view from the rooftop seating was nice and wished we had more time to be able to enjoy eating, drinking and lounging. One last thing which makes this a great local Maui business to support - they donate ALL profit to charity! You found a new supporter in person and online for my future orders."
"Did both the farm and factory tour today and would without hesitation recommend this to anyone and everyone. I’m a long time chocoholic and felt like I knew a lot about how it was made, but I learned so much! It was great to hear about the entire process from growing to shipping, and to learn that this is one of the few farms anywhere who both grow their own cacao and make their own chocolate. Our tour guides were so informative and knowledgeable and also humorous. Th tours went by in a flash, and involved chocolate tastings, coupons and vouchers for use in their store or online. I definitely plan to buy copious amounts of their chocolate for myself and for all my friends and souvenirs."
"We stopped at Maui Ku’ia Estate Chocolate for a quick tasting. The little chocolate tablets were so good. The ingredients on the chocolate packaging are very few, without additives or chemicals. We were surprised by the taste of the chocolates and we are amazed by their quality. After tasting we had a cup of coffee with ice cream on their rooftop, from where you have a view like in the movies. The staff is nice, friendly and professional. We really have nothing to complain about and we urge everyone to go."
"Our favorite tour on the island. I was wildly impressed with how knowledgeable our tour guide Kari (sp?) was. She knew so much about the area, history, and farming process itself! And not only did she have the tour well-presented, our group had a LOT of questions and she always had an answer. The farm itself was beautiful and well-thought-out. The tour had plenty of demonstration of each spot in the lifecycle of cocoa. And not to mention the chocolate tasting itself was amazing! It was delicious AND unique. Each bite was a very intentional choice, as it demonstrated different flavors based on location of bean grown or manufacturing process. I can't recommend this enough to any chocolate lover, or botanist!"
"Amazing factory tour, highly recommend this stop when in Maui. It will convert you to a high-quality chocolate lover. Or it will ruin you, depends on your perspective. Regardless, come to Ku’ia and meet the real Willy Wonka of Maui"
"We did the Guided Cacao Farm Tour and it was amazing. Our whole family loved it -- even our 3.5-year-old. Brandy was an incredible tour guide: kind,..."
