At Regal Plantations in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu, producers Karthikeyan Palanisamy and Harish Kumar grow cacao trees intercropped among coconut palms and nutmeg trees, which improves their land's biodiversity and soil quality. The plantation is visited by tigers from the preserve next door, and by elephants who pull snacks from coconut palms.
Anamalai's cacao trees tend to produce fruit-forward beans that feature bright, tropical tasting notes.
