These delicious Tres Hombres Chocolate Sails White are thin pieces of white chocolate. These are particularly delicious made with real natural vanilla and a pinch of sea salt, before being sprinkled with crunchy cacao nibs. Cocoa nibs are small pieces of roasted cocoa beans without their skins.
The chocolate is made with organic cocoa butter that is made with the cocoa from the farmers' cooperative in Conacado in the Dominican Republic. The combination of the white chocolate together with the vanilla, the sea salt and the crunchy cocoa nibs is really delicious.
The sailing freighter Tres Hombres sails the Chocozeiltjes to the Netherlands on the pure power of the wind. This sustainable sailing journey starts in the Caribbean and takes the chocolate to the quay in Amsterdam, where it reaches its destination, in approximately four months. This special sailing trip contributes to environmentally friendly transport and pays tribute to the tradition of wind-driven shipping. This is also home to the Chocolatemakers, who produce the best chocolate.
So while you enjoy this delicious chocolate, you are not only supporting the ship Tres Hombres, but you are also choosing sustainable transport! Can chocolate taste any sweeter?
Furthermore, the Chocolatemakers use the cocoa beans to produce 'single origin' organic chocolate with manual craftsmanship, using only solar energy!
Let the wind carry you away and taste the power of real chocolate! Also available in 52% coffee chocolate and 70% dark chocolate.
Milk powder*, sugar*, cocoa butter*, cocoa nibs* (5%), sea salt, vanilla* (0.1)

The life of the brigantine Tres Hombres began in 1943. At the time still without masts and in a wreck-like condition, she was discovered in 2007 by three friends in Delft, the Netherlands. With an incredible amount of diligence and dedication from many volunteers, she was brought back to life. Within just over 2 years we managed to completely restore the ship and convert it into a sailing ship that now crosses the Atlantic Ocean every year, sails the Northern European seas and covers these long transport distances exclusively with the power of the wind.
The cocoa beans of this Chocozeiltjes edition are collected in the Dominican Republic during the winter trip. The first crew boards in Den Helder on a ship that is in tip-top condition after the refit has been completed. Trainees, and sometimes crew, rotate occasionally during the various stops made to load produce or stock up on food supplies.
Loading/Discharging ports:
Previously used barrels are loaded in Douarnenez and Baiona and later filled with rum from La Palma and the Caribbean islands. These barrels provide an extra special taste that makes the Tres Hombres Rum unique.
In Santa Cruz de la Palma, Fort-de-France, Marie-Galante, Bridgetown and Boca Chica the barrels are filled with different types of rum. Other products are also loaded on these islands, such as cocoa beans in the Dominican Republic for this delicious chocolate.
The stopover in Horta in the Azores is actually only to stock up on food supplies, but occasionally tea and tuna are also loaded there.
