Really nice woman working the shop, she offered us samples of anything we wanted to try. Lonohana is high-quality, sustainable chocolate bars with a dozen different flavors. They also had their new line, Onomea, which sells for half the price! The store has cold drinks and a few other chocolate goodies like granola. As of August 2021, you could go browse in their store with a mask or remain outside at the tasting window and taste and purchase that way. We ended up buying a lot of Coconut Crunch and Cafe Au Lait bars!

Lonohana is located in Salt Kakaako. This is the tasting bar as there chocolates are grown on the town of Waialua on the north side of the island.Like anything else that is locally made, it’s not the cheapest chocolate but more of a specialty chocolate. They have a large variety from Milk to Dark with some special ingredients.While your there they also have Truffles.... yes truffles which you can purchase or sample as well.

A great place to pick up truly superior chocolates for discriminating tastes.

Highly recommended for chocolate lover.

Amazing chocolate here and refreshing drink

As a Londoner we expect a great deal from our chocolate, and Lonohana did not disappoint!From the samples that are to die-for to their refreshingly delicious drinks, it is an ethical chocoholics dream come true.Much credit goes to their cacao expert Sharla, for her Aloha! and knowledge, making Lonohana a MUST for all chocolate connoisseurs and foodies!Dont go home without some :)

What a lovely chocolate maker and shop! I think the owner was there when I was, because he was super knowledgeable and spent 20 minutes letting me try the chocolates and talking about the flavors. I love that many of the chocolates are grown locally, and all are very high quality. Highly recommend!

Excellent chocolate. Local and interesting flavors. Lots of samples. Employee gives you plenty of space.

I will admit, as a chocoholic, I was drawn in to this smallish space to taste and learn about Lonohana Estate. Lonohana Estate Chocolate is locally grown on the island of Oahu where they grow cacao, harvest, ferment and dry the beans before turning them into luxurious chocolate bars and other chocolate products. This company is a joint-venture between childhood friends that was started in 2008 and has continually grown to include its own chocolate factory and now its first retail store.We were able to experience a few of its proprietary chocolate drinks, in-house made cookies and a wide selection of handcrafted milk and dark chocolate bars. The drink menu includes Chocolate Thai Iced Tea, The Koko-Colada and a very special hot chocolate. There were about 8 dark and milk chocolate bars with varying flavor ingredients. One thing for sure, when you sample their chocolate, the aroma, snap or break and melt of each chocolate will convince your taste buds of its fine quality.We purchased some cookies and a bar of Providencia Dark Milk Chocolate which well be eating soon. We also purchased a small container of Ginger Cacao Salt which I look forward to using that Cacao Salt in a baking project.Oh, in addition to purchasing these fine chocolate bars at this retail store, you can purchase them online or join the Lonohana Chocolate Club. The Chocolate Club also includes Limited Edition bars (incorporates Hawaii-grown inclusions such as cocoa nibs, fruits, salts, spices and nuts) to the pure chocolate bars.Come on in and support this LOCAL chocolate business with Worldwide acclaim.

Some of the best chocolate being made in all of Hawaii! They have samples of all the bars, too, so you can pick more than one favorite. I have a sweet tooth, so the salted milk is my weakness!

Amazing variety. Numerous free samples, extra friendly staff. The chocolate is some of the best I have ever had.

Wonderful chocolates from Hawaii and Latin America. Hand made. Also chocolate drinks and truffles and spices using cacao nibs.

A wonderful shop with really high quality, speciality chocolate. Both milk and dark options as well as options such as ginger and Mac nut mixed in. Super friendly staff.

Incredible chocolate and free samples to try out! Very friendly staff and awesome little shop! Must try!
