Lonohana Estate Chocolate

Top choice in Honolulu


All the cocoa beans used for the chocolate sold in this exquisite little shop are grown on a 14-acre plot on O‘ahu's North Shore. The brains behind the operation is Seneca Klassen, who grows the beans, manufactures the chocolate and creates the treats sold here in his shop. Sustainability is a core tenet of the company.
