I’ve loved advent calendars ever since I was young, even when I was growing up in the Caribbean, far away from the snow. At the beginning of December the bright lights of Christmas still felt a long way off, deep in the heart of winter. But each door in the calendar took me closer, along an imaginary path of moonlit frost, glittering like jewels. I feel so proud of our advent calendars – I think they make beautiful gifts. And take a look at our other Winter season specials for more perfect presents – from super Goody Bags to our fabulously festive Sleeksters. Wishing you a wonderful Christmas,

Come and dine with us at our two NEW RESTAURANTS FROM PLANTATION TO PLATE Who would think it’s a good idea to open a restaurant halfway up a hill in a rainforest more than four thousand miles away?

cocoa used as a subtle savoury spice and garnish, just as it had been for centuries before chocolate was invented.

Well, we did. Perhaps it was the rum.

Two years later, Boucan opened to rave reviews, quickly becoming the hottest restaurant in Saint Lucia, acclaimed for its innovative cooking.

At the time, we deserved a drink. It was 2010 and we’d just spent four years restoring the 250-year-old Rabot Estate cocoa planation on the island of Saint Lucia, discovering for ourselves all there was to know about cocoa and how to farm it responsibly. As we sat on the estate house verandah, snacking on cocoa nibs as a Caribbean sun eased behind the Piton Mountains, we thought: Wouldn’t it be great if you could be here with us? Several rums later, it was decided: we would build a restaurant and hotel in the estate grounds. It would be called Boucan. It would serve an entirely new kind of Anglo-Saint-Lucian cuisine – contemporary dishes influenced by the West Indies and Britain, with roasted

Our ingenious chefs, surrounded by cocoa that grew on the trees around their open kitchen, had learned how to conjure up dishes with unique harmonies of taste you just wouldn’t find anywhere else, from the exquisite cacao-nib encrusted fillet of pork to the fresh cacao bellini. Guests came from around the world, and when diners began to flock from New York, a short-haul flight away, to a restaurant in a rainforest set up by eccentric Brits, we knew it was time to bring the Boucan experience back home...

FROM SAINT LUCIA TO LONDON & LEEDS Come and experience it for yourself. This autumn we’re opening two brand new cocoa cuisine restaurants – Rabot 1745 in Borough Market, London and Roast + Conch at the Trinity Centre, Leeds. Cast over several floors, with the personality of a Caribbean plantation house stylishly recreated in 21st century Britain, they’ll be offering unique menus designed by the chef who created the cacao-centric cuisine at our Boucan restaurant, featuring light and contemporary influences from the West Indies and Britain, underpinned with the subtle notes of cocoa. Guests will be free to dine, drink, shop, and socialise all through the day and night at a cocktail bar and a boutique to browse exquisite chocolates and cocoa cuisine ingredients you can take back to your own kitchen.

CUISINE WITH A COCOA TWIST POTTED MACKEREL GANACHE British flaked, smoked mackerel in our secret ganache recipe, with a rack of cacao-nib crispbread and leaves. ROAST ‘YARDBIRD’ FOR TWO Basted with cacao-nib butter served with dauphinoise potatoes, plantation stuffing, roast garlic and red wine roasting jus. MAGNIFICENT PITON Our homage to the iconic sea-mountains which overlook our estate and the most popular dessert at Boucan restaurant. A dramatic soft meringue peak, surrounded by made-on-site chocolate soup with sliced bananas, flaked almonds and caramel drizzle.

Experience a brand new kind of cocoa drink: Cocoa Royale: an original, refreshing cocoa infusion drink that really gives you a boost.

Cocoa drinking has always been a ritual. And for that, you need a rather special cup. This is ours: The Pod – a fluted, ceramic beaker inspired by the shape of an opened cocoa pod from our Rabot Estate plantation in Saint Lucia. Designed for Hotel hotelchocolat.com 36 Chocolat by ceramicist and artist Andrew Wicks.

The rise of the Super-Milks – high-cocoa milk chocolate made from rare and vintage beans gathered from the world’s finest harvests The Super Milks have arrived. Adored by foodies and supermodels alike, super-milk chocolate combines the intense cocoa hit of dark chocolate with the seductively mellow creaminess of milk chocolate. It has an incredibly low sugar content, typically only 12 per cent, and packs in all the uplifting benefits of dark chocolate, rich in antioxidants and natural feel-good compounds – delivering a deeply satisfying cocoa high with less. Discover the Super Milk for yourself in our single-origin Rabot 1745 range, in bars created from rare and vintage cocoa beans we’ve gathered from harvests in Ecuador, Peru, Trinidad, Saint Lucia and Indonesia, using cocoa levels as high as 75 per cent.
