Mason & Co is an Indian bean-to-bar chocolate maker recognized for its organic, vegan and minimalist approach to production. The brand sources cacao directly from small farmers in South India - primarily Kerala, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu - using exclusively single-origin beans that are processed in small batches in their own workshop. The production involves hand-sorting, slow fermentation, precise roasting and fine grinding, with much of the work done by women from nearby rural communities, a key part of the brand’s ethical mission. Their chocolates contain no emulsifiers, soy, gluten or artificial additives, focusing instead on the natural flavor profile of cacao and pure ingredients such as sea salt, spices or organic nuts. Alongside dark chocolate bars in various cacao percentages, they offer cacao powder, cacao butter, nibs and baking products, positioning Mason & Co as one of the pioneers of high-quality, sustainable and transparent chocolate making in India.
