About Bahen & Co

Hopefully from the faded plantation names on the jute cacao bags to the diverse origins of the restored old world machines you get a sense of Bahen & Co’s deep curiosity about cacao.

With former lives as vignerons, Jacqui & Josh Bahen have seeded an understanding that achieving simplicity in chocolate making is harder than complex. Taking a simplistic approach to respect flavour and connect back to the source.

Restored from a vintage age and lead by a 1930’s Barth Sirocco Ball Roaster and circa 1910 Guitard Melangeur, the chocolate machines operate slow and cool with the wisdom needed to preserve the taste of distant places.

We are on a continual search for fine flavoured cacao.  Building long-term relationships with farmers based on solid principles of mutual benefit, transparent and fair.   By paying direct and cutting out the middleman, we exceed Fair Trade and pay prices that respect the farmer's efforts. 

The chocolate factory operates from the family farm in Margaret River - Western Australia.  A region with a raw natural beauty and strong community that supports the efforts of its small producers.

We hope you enjoy the journey.  From bean to bar.
