Ezweni elikude eliyisiqhingi iSao Tome and Principe eNtshonalanga Afrika, umNtaliyane uClaudio Conaro ukholelwa ukuthi usekhiqize ushokoledi ongcono kakhulu emhlabeni.UConaro ukholelwa ukuthi amagugu aphakeme kakhulu ashiwo yimboni kashokoledi empeleni “ukuziqhayisa okuningi, ushukela omningi, nokupakishwa okuningi.”Iminyaka eminingi, uCornaro ubelokhu enza ushokoledi ohamba phambili emhlabeni njengomsebenzi wakhe.

Manje usenconywa ngomagazini abaningi abadumile emhlabeni jikelele, futhi imikhiqizo yakhe idayiswa eYurophu, e-United States, eJapane nakwezinye izindawo.Labo ababa nenhlanhla yokunambitha ushokoledi awenzile bacabanga ukuthi abakaze bawuzwe ushokoledi wangempela ngaphambilini.

ukukhiqizwa kweziqhingi ezincane kuthunyelwa phesheya kwezilwandle

Manje uCornaro uhlala eDemocratic Republic of Sao Tome and Principe, izwe elincane eNtshonalanga Afrika elikude futhi bambalwa abantu abake bavakasha.Iqukethe iziqhingi ezimbili ezinezintaba-mlilo eGulf of Guinea - iSao Tome nePrincipe Yakhiwa iziqhingi eziyi-14 ezihlanganisa iRollas neCarlosso.Kwake kwaba yikoloni lasePortugal.Ngekhulu le-19, yayidume kakhulu ngezinto ezimbili: izigqila nobhontshisi kakhokho.Manje sekusele ubhontshisi kakhokho kuphela lapha.Indlu kaCornaro isendaweni ebheke olwandle enhlokodolobha iSão Tomé, futhi ilabhorethri yakhe kashokoledi ingemuva kwendlu.

UConaro wazalelwa eFlorence, e-Italy, kodwa usehlale e-Afrika iminyaka engu-34.Lapha, wayezifundise futhi wafunda yonke into ngoshokoledi.

Yena kanye noshokoledi bakhe manje bavame ukuvela komagazini abahlukahlukene bokudla.Umsebenzi wakhe onzima ubizwa ngokuthi "Kona Rococo" futhi uthengisa ngama-euro angu-10 ngamagremu angu-130.Bambalwa abantu e-Sao Tome nase-Principe abangakwazi ukuthenga lolu hlobo lukashokoledi, futhi u-Cornaro angawuthengisa ngolwandle kuphela e-France, e-Italy, e-Spain, e-United States nase-Japan.

ushokoledi ohlanzekile uyaphefumula

UClaudio Conaro, 56, unentshebe empunga futhi amehlo akhe athambile.Wakhipha ummese ephaketheni lakhe wasika ucezu lukashokoledi oluphambi kwakhe lwaba yimicu emincane.Lona ucezu lukashokoledi olunejusi ye-cocoa namagilebhisi omisiwe, anobumsulwa obungama-70%.Wahogela ushokoledi, maqede wagoqa, ebuka iqeqebana labahloli livale amehlo libavumela ukuba bacwile ephunga elimnandi nelimnandi lejusi kakhokho, ubumnandi bezithelo zomvini omisiwe kanye nephunga elimnandi lotshwala.Uyamamatheka.

"Ucabangani?"ebuza.

Ngokombono kaKonaro, noma ubani ozama ushokoledi wakhe okokuqala uzoqaphela ukuthi akakaze awudle ushokoledi wangempela.Ukholelwa ukuthi awukho ushokoledi emhlabeni ongaqhathaniswa “nokugcina indlu” yakhe.Le mikhiqizo "yenqindi" ihlanganisa u-75% weshokoledi ohlanzekile one-flavour ye-ginger, u-80% ushokoledi ohlanzekile onoshukela we-rock, kanye nokuhle kunawo wonke amagugu akhe: ushokoledi omsulwa ongu-100%.

I-"Supreme Goods" ayinakho ukunambitheka kwasekuqaleni

Kodwa lapho ebhekene negagasi elikhulayo lezentengiselwano, ayekulwa kwakuyimpi enesizungu.Ngoba ufuna ukuvumela umhlaba unambithe ushokoledi wangempela, kunokubukisa ngokunethezeka okukhazimulayo njengabakhiqizi abaningi bakashokoledi.

Njengoba u-Cornaro ethatha ibhokisi likashokoledi eshalofini, wathi: “Empeleni ushokoledi wanamuhla uwukuziqhayisa okukhulu, oncibilikisiwe waba ushukela omningi, futhi upakishwe kakhulu.Lokhu kumsulwa okungu-100% okuvela eVenezuela.I-cocoa ibiza kakhulu."Wahogela ushokoledi owawusesandleni sakhe, wahlephula ucezu wawufaka emlonyeni, wabe esenza ubuso.“Kunamafutha, okubabayo, akunaphunga elimnandi.Uma ufuna ukusho ukuthi lona futhi ushokoledi omuhle, ngakho-ke angazi ukuthi yimuphi omunye ushokoledi omubi.Kodwa ushokoledi wethu, ungakuvumela ukuthi unambithe ukunambitheka kwasekuqaleni kukabhontshisi kakhokho.”

Abamelene noConaro yizinkampani ezinkulu zamazwe ngamazwe ezilawula ibhizinisi likashokoledi.Bacubungula ubhontshisi we-cocoa wekhwalithi ephansi futhi basebenzisa amasu ahlukahlukene ukwenza ushokoledi ube nephunga elimnandi futhi ube mnandi.Uthe: “Bafaka ubhontshisi we-cocoa “emshinini omise okwe-conch”, osetshenziswa ngokukhethekile ukususa ukunambitheka kukabhontshisi kakhokho.”Ubekhuluma ngomshini wokuxova okwakuthiwa usetshenziswe ubhontshisi we-cocoa Refined.Ubhontshisi we-cocoa ugaywa ngokuphindaphindiwe kulo mshini, bese ushiswa ku-80 degrees Celsius, futhi ngalesi sikhathi, awunakho nhlobo ukunambitheka.Bese bengeza i-vanilla ukuze bathole iphunga layo, bayibize ngokuthi "umkhiqizo ongcono kakhulu", futhi bayithengise ngama-euro ayi-100 ngamagremu ayi-1,000.Lona empeleni umkhiqizo ocutshunguliwe olahlekelwe ukunambitheka kwawo kwangempela.

U-Conaro uthe ushokoledi wobisi othengiswa ezitolo ezinkulu empeleni umsulwa kakhulu kunalezi zinto zikanokusho.

Izinga likabhontshisi we-cocoa libaluleke kakhulu

Kunezinto ezintathu ezithandwayo empilweni kaCornaro: ikhofi, ukhokho kanye nokhukhunathi.

Kwakuyikhofi aqala ukulithanda.Lapho eneminyaka engu-22, waba nomuzwa wokuthi yonke into e-Italy yayiphelele kakhulu ekuthandeni kwakhe, ngakho wahamba waya eZaire (eCongo enhloko-dolobha yayo iKinshasa).Wathatha amasimu amabili ayengasasebenzi futhi waqala ukutshala ikhofi.Ipulazi lakhe lithatha indawo engamahektha ayi-2,500 futhi litholakala ehlathini.Kuthatha amakhilomitha angu-1 600 ukufika lapho usuka enhloko-dolobha iKinshasa ngesikebhe.Wahlala emasimini iminyaka eminingi.Ngalesi sikhathi, waphathwa umalaleveva kanye neschistosomiasis.Kodwa uyalithanda ibhizinisi lakhe lekhofi, futhi manje ukhumbula ukuthi wayephakela izihlahla zekhofi ngokucophelela njengoba isizinda sewayini sitshala amagilebhisi.

Kodwa kwabe sekuqala impi.Amavukela-mbuso adla insimu yakhe yekhofi.Ngo-1993, uCornaro wabalekela eSao Tome nomkakhe nezingane ezimbili.

ulapha, uthole ibhizinisi lakhe likabhontshisi kakhokho.

Lo mndeni ekuqaleni ubuhlala emijondolo yamapulangwe ebhishi lasePrincipe.Babengebaningi abantu lapho, ngakho ngezinye izikhathi babehamba nqunu.Lapho ehamba amabanga amade ehlathini, uCornaro wayehlangana nezihlahla zikakhokho ezindala ngezikhathi ezithile.Ngo-1819, iNkosi yasePortugal yayala ukwethulwa kwezihlahla zokuqala zikakhokho e-Afrika zisuka eBrazil eNingizimu Melika.Izihlahla zikakhokho ezabonwa nguCornaro zakhiqizwa iqoqo lokuqala.

Ayikho imfihlakalo kulezi zihlahla zikakhokho.Nokho, uma kuqhathaniswa nezinhlobonhlobo zesimanje eziyingxube imboni kashokoledi ethembele kuzo, izihlahla zikakhokho ezisetshenziswa uCornaro zinesivuno esincane, kodwa ukunambitheka kukabhontshisi kakhokho ezikhiqizayo akwaziwa ukuthi kangaki okungcono.Kulabo abafuna ukwenza ushokoledi ongcono kakhulu emhlabeni, izinga likabhontshisi we-cocoa libaluleke kakhulu.

Ifomula eyingqayizivele engamenyezelwanga ngokuyimfihlo

Kepha noma ngamabhontshisi we-cocoa asezingeni eliphakeme kangaka, uCornaro ubesalokhu ezindla iminyaka eminingi ukuthola indlela yokukhiqiza eyiyo.Njengalapho abantu begawula amagilebhisi lapho benza iwayini, uzoyeka ubhontshisi we-cocoa ukuthi ubilile isikhathi esingaphezu kwamasonto amabili.

Ngemva kwalokho, wayebeka ubhontshisi esitofini ukuze wome.Abesifazane abagqoke amajazi amhlophe namamaski banyakazisa ubhontshisi esisefweni, bese bekhipha ubhontshisi ababayo ngesandla.Lapho-ke abantu bazosebenzisa isiphephetha-moya sokuzenzela ukuphephetha uthuli olucolekileyo kubhontshisi.Umkhiqizo wokugcina yi-cocoa paste.

Kodwa-ke, u-Conaro unezindebe eziqinile mayelana nezinye izimfihlo eziningi zenqubo yokwenza ushokoledi.

U-Cornaro akanandaba kakhulu nokumakethwa kwemikhiqizo, okungenzeka kube yisizathu sokuthi kungani ibhizinisi lakhe lingakaze lidume kangaka.Akasazi isiNgisi futhi akavamile ukuya e-Europe ngoba ebona sengathi i-Europe ayisekho muhle kunakuqala.Ekhuluma ngedolobha lakubo iFlorence, uthe seliphenduke “iDisneyland” yezivakashi.Imigwaqo igcwele izimpahla zikanokusho."Azikho izinto ezijwayelekile, ezijwayelekile ezingasabonwa."

ukuphelela kuphela

U-Conaro ungumuntu othanda ukuphelela, ugxile ekunambithekeni nasekusebenzeni.Akayena umuntu olula ukuzwana naye.Yena nomkakhe bahlukana kudala;manje uhlala eLisbon (inhloko-dolobha yasePortugal).

Wathatha ucelemba, wagibela eshicileleni lakhe eliluhlaza “Fiat”, futhi wahlela ukuya ensimini yakhe.Ekugcineni wathi: “Ngikholelwa ukuthi imboni kashokoledi iyasesaba.Kufanele kube njalo.Ubani owabatshela ukuthi bathengise ushokoledi ‘ongama-75% ahlanzekile’ nakuba uqukethe ukhokho omncane nje?”
