Benoît Nihant
Benoît Nihant Chocolatier is part of the elite group of chocolatiers who make chocolate from cocoa beans. Almost all chocolate manufacturers use chocolate as a raw material and then remelt it. However, Benoît chooses to master the entire process, from selecting the best batches of high-quality cocoa beans to working with growers who share his passion for excellence. He works closely with plantations. The type of soil, the level of sunlight, and the variety of cocoa trees, combined with the expertise of his planting partners, are all factors that influence the unique aroma of his exceptional chocolates. To maintain its unique character and honor the work of the growers, he does not mix beans from different plantations.
