Five steps. Five numbers you can order by.
İmesta does not make chocolate. It makes the material a chocolate, biscuit or beverage plant buys by specification — and every value on that specification is set at one of these steps.
- 01OriginSets · Bean & cropBeans arrive from Ghana & Côte d'Ivoire — West African origins chosen for fat composition and colour depth.
- 02Roast & winnowSets · Shell contentThe roast profile is set per product; winnowing brings shell down to the value on the sheet.
- 03AlkalizationSets · pH & colourThe step that makes an İ8 an İ8. pH decides colour, dispersibility and flavour — and it is what you order by.
- 04Press & millSets · Fat % & finenessPressing sets fat content, milling sets fineness. Butter and liquor leave the line here.
- 05Pack & shipSets · 25 kg / palletPacked in Türkiye and loaded for MENA, the Gulf, Africa and the CIS.
