Lonohana Estate Chocolate Factory

Frequently asked questions

Where is Lonohana Estate Chocolate Factory?

The factory is at 711 Queen St in Honolulu on Oahu. The cacao itself is grown on their estate on the North Shore.

What are the factory's hours?

Lonohana is open Mon–Thurs 12pm–5pm, Fri–Sat 10am–8pm, and Sun 9am–5pm. Tour times may differ — confirm at booking.

How do I book a factory tour?

Tours can be booked online through Lonohana's website. Reserving ahead is recommended since small-batch tours fill up.

Is the chocolate made from Hawaiian-grown cacao?

Yes. Lonohana is bean-to-bar and uses cacao grown on their own North Shore estate, making it one of the few fully estate-grown chocolates in Hawaii.

What products are available in the retail store?

The tasting bar carries Hawaiian Dark 70%, Dark with Nibs & Sea Salt, milk chocolate–covered Ka'u coffee beans, coconut pineapple bites, and gift collections.

What sets Lonohana apart from other Hawaii chocolate stops?

Lonohana grows, ferments, and makes its chocolate from a single 14-acre Oahu farm, so each bar reflects one estate rather than a blend of sourced beans.
