The Rabot Estate on the paradise Island of St Lucia have been farming cacao since 1745 and it is here that cult UK chocolate brand Hotel Chocolat was born.

From the estates humble beginnings they now boast a boutique hotel, London restaurant and a fab new beauty range which have all been inspired by their love of the island, the people and the plants that flourish there.

In 2017 Hotel Chocolat's Angus Thirlwell invited modern apothecary and ex-Lush director Andrew Gerrie to explore the Rabot Estate with a view to imagining what the essence of their estate would look like, bottled. 

They experimented with the rich collection of flora on the estate to craft a range of natural and nourishing cacao-rich beauty products known today as Rabot 1745.
