About Mānoa Chocolate & Wine Bar
We’ve been making award-winning chocolate in Kailua, Oʻahu since 2010. Sourcing cacao from across the Hawaiian Islands and around the globe, our goal is to bring out the best in each bean and contribute to a more ethical cacao industry for farmers and customers alike.
Wine has also been a passion of ours for years. We found that the more we delved into the world of winemaking, the more we improved how we make our chocolate and educate our customers. We decided to put these two passions together, and in 2022, opened the doors to our evening natural wine bar.
