Menakao \u2013 Tablets reflecting Madagascar<\/h2>\n

At the heart of Menakao chocolates, there are women and men!<\/em><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

It is therefore quite natural that we wanted to illustrate our tablets by highlighting the faces of the different ethnic groups that represent the Malagasy people. The Tanala, the Betsimisaraka, the Mahafaly, the Antanosy, the Bara or the Merina, all represented in their traditional headdresses and clothes.<\/p>\n

A tribute and a desire to make discover a country with multiple cultures which make the richness of Madagascar; also a wink from Shahin Cassam Chena\u00ef, founder of Menakao, who wanted to recall four generations later the first commercial activities of the family: arriving at the beginning of the 19th century, it began in the sale of postcards.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A fine cocoa<\/h3>\n
Due to a cocoa classified among the best in the world and labeled \"Fine Cocoa\" by the International Cocoa Organization since January 2016, Malagasy chocolate is appreciated for its floral notes, its hint of acidity and its slight astringency on the finish.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

MENA mean red in Malagasy<\/h3>\n
Red like the color of the earth, rich in minerals and sediments deposited by the Sambirano river, red like the color of the pods that come from the best producers in the Sambirano valley, red like the color of our chocolate, finally Mena like the island Red: Madagascar.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

KAO for cocoa<\/h3>\n
Our beans come from the best cooperatives of planters in the Sambirano valley (Ambanja region). We develop our recipes by favoring local products (100% Madagascar range, Truly Madagascar), and this from superior or premium beans.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

A dark chocolate sweetened just enough, but enough, to reveal the deep aroma of cocoa and the notes of red fruits and citrus fruits. An intense, elegant chocolate with a lovely tangy finish on the palate.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The image corresponds to the portrait of a Mahafaly woman (\"Those who make taboos\" or \"Those who make people happy\"). Located in the southwest of Madagascar, the Mahafaly are particularly famous for the tombs they build to honor their chiefs and kings. The tombs are made up of large stone squares surmounted by wooden carvings (named \u201caloalo\u201d, meaning \u201cthe messenger\u201d between the worlds of the living and the dead) and piles of zebu horns. The Aloalo are sculpted with geometric patterns and topped with naive figures or scenes from life. Mahafaly art is also manifested through some very characteristic hairstyles (as in this case).<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":4238,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"product_cat":[69],"product_tag":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/cinq-freres.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/4199"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/cinq-freres.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/cinq-freres.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cinq-freres.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4199"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cinq-freres.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4238"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/cinq-freres.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4199"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cinq-freres.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=4199"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/cinq-freres.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=4199"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
