Maker Comments | If you stayed awake in chocolate class you would know that "Nacional" is a fine flavour cacao that originated in Ecuador renowned for its pronounced floral character. Recently a genuine strain of Nacional was recovered (with a little bit more hype and fanfare than is usual for cacao), growing at a high altitude in a box canyon in the Maranon River valley of Peru. With some relatively atypical white-colored beans, DNA tests show it to be an identical match to pure Nacional. |
