ʻO ka mea pōmaikaʻi, ʻohi mākou i ka koko i ʻelua kau-ke puna a me ka hopena o ka hāʻule.Ma mua o ka maʻi maʻi COVID, ua hoʻopau mākou i nā hana ʻohi a pau i kēia pūnāwai, a i kēia manawa ma ke ʻano ʻenehana, aia mākou ma waena o nā kau ʻelua a ʻaʻole i nalowale kekahi mau mea kanu.
E mālama ʻia nā pī no ka manawa lōʻihi, a e mālama ʻia hoʻi ke kokoleka i hana ʻia no ka manawa lōʻihi, no laila ʻaʻole e pōʻino i laila.I ka wā o ka pani ʻana, ʻaʻole mākou i hoʻomaloʻo, ʻokiʻoki a hana i ka hana ʻana i nā pahu kokoleka.No ka mea ke hoʻomau nei ka waiwai i ke kūʻai ʻana i nā kokoleka ma ka pūnaewele, a ke hoʻomau nei nā kānaka i ke kauoha ʻana i nā kokoleka, he mea maikaʻi loa ia ʻaʻole mākou i kūʻai ʻia i kēia manawa.
Loaʻa iā mākou nā ʻano meaʻai like ʻole e hana i ka ʻono, ʻoi aku hoʻi no nā kaola.Hoʻohana mākou i ka lemongrass, cinnamon, jalapeno, espresso, meli a me nā ʻalemona.Hāʻawi pū mākou i nā mea ʻono he nui, me ka ginger, rum, espresso a me ka caramel paʻakai.ʻO kaʻu kokoleka punahele he kinamona kokoleka, ʻohi mākou i ke kinamona ma ka mahiʻai no kēia-ʻaʻohe mea ʻē aʻe, he hui maikaʻi loa ia.
E like me ka waina, ʻokoʻa nā ʻano nuances i ulu ʻia ma ka honua holoʻokoʻa.ʻOiai he mau pīni like lākou, ʻo ia ka wā ulu, nā kūlana ulu, ka ua, ka mahana, ka lā, a me nā kūlana climatic e pili ana i ko lākou ʻono.Hoʻokahi like kā mākou pīni no ka mea ulu like lākou a pau.ʻOiai mākou e hui pū i nā ʻano pīni he nui, aia lākou i kā mākou liʻiliʻi.
ʻO ia ke kumu e ʻono ʻia ai kēlā me kēia ʻāpana.Pono ʻoe e hoʻopaʻa pono i ka hui ʻana o nā pī i hiki ke ʻono maikaʻi ke kokoleka e hui ʻia.
Hoʻohana mākou i ke kokoleka e hana i nā mea nani.ʻO nā paʻi kokoleka, nā croissants kokoleka a me ke kī koko, he inu kahiko loa kēia o Saint Lucia.He koko i hui pū ʻia me ka waiu niu a i ʻole ka waiu maʻamau, a he mau mea ʻono e like me ke kinamona, cloves, cardamom, a me Baileys.Hana ʻia ʻo ia ma ke ʻano he kī kakahiaka a loaʻa ka waiwai lapaʻau.Ua inu nā mea a pau i ulu ma Saint Lucia mai ka wā kamaliʻi.

Ua hoʻoikaika mākou i ka ʻoihana kokoleka ma Saint Lucia, aʻu i manaʻo ai he mea nui loa.Ke nānā nei i ka wā e hiki mai ana, he mea kēia e hiki i ka poʻe ʻōpio ke hoʻomaka e hana, a ʻike ʻoe i ka wā e hana ai ʻoe i kēia kokoleka i hana lima ʻia, nui ka maikaʻi a me ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o nā lole kokoleka kālepa a me ke kokoleka hoʻomaʻemaʻe.
ʻAʻole ʻo "candy", akā nani i hana ʻia i ke kokoleka kiʻekiʻe.He mea maikaʻi ia no ka puʻuwai, maikaʻi no nā endorphins, a hāʻawi iā ʻoe i ke ʻano o ka maluhia.Manaʻo wau he mea maikaʻi loa ka loaʻa ʻana o ke kokoleka ma ke ʻano he meaʻai lāʻau lapaʻau.Hoʻomaha ka poʻe i ka wā e ʻai ai lākou i ke kokoleka-leʻaleʻa lākou.
Hoʻokahi mea a mākou e makemake ai e hana ʻo "sensory tasting", hāʻawi mākou i ka poʻe i ka manawa e ʻimi ai i ko lākou mau manaʻo a me ke kokoleka pili, i hiki iā lākou ke hoʻomaopopo maikaʻi i kā lākou ʻai a me ke ʻano ʻai.I nā manawa he nui, ʻai wale mākou me ka noʻonoʻo ʻole i nā mea o ka meaʻai.
ʻO ka ʻono ʻana i kahi ʻāpana kokoleka a laila hoʻoheheʻe ʻia i loko o kou waha hiki ke hoʻoikaika i ka nānā ʻana i kāu meaʻai.E piʻi aʻe ka ʻala i kou puka ihu a hauʻoli i ka ʻono o ke kokoleka ma kou alelo.He ʻike ʻike maoli kēia.
