Podcast: Grenada Chocolate with Magdalena Fielden

Magdalena Fielden tells Brent the fascinating story of chocolate in Grenada. Once an industry that exploited farmers for cocoa export, today chocolate production is an economic engine for the island, making world class, sustainable, and ethical chocolate bars that are acknowledged worldwide for their quality. Magalena talks about pairing chocolate with rum, cocoa infused tea, and creating a world famous chocolate festival. [Ep 402]
