Peru 72% cocoa - Heat B

Silver medal winners at the International Chocolate Awards 2023!

This very fragrant chocolate is made with beans originating from Peru , more precisely from the region surrounding Ucayali River .

This is a terroir which has been awarded several times during International Chocolate Awards , but which remains little known to the general public, because despite the quality of these beans, production still remains very limited today. The reason being that the coca plantation there eclipsed that of cocoa for several years. Working in collaboration with USAID and Alianza Peru to offer a more profitable alternative to the cocaine market, the operator Ucayali River Cacao collects and processes quality beans from a collective of nearly 400 small farmers .

VERY IMPORTANT: Note that nothing has been added to the chocolate and that the fruit flavors you will taste come directly from the bean.
