Maker Comments | Rich, volcanic soil and up to 102 inches of annual rainfall make the Markham River Valley in eastern Papua New Guinea home to some of the most unique cacao in the world. Seasonal harvests from a single estate plantation are wood-box fermented for five days to develop complex flavors. Our light roast creates a delightful mix of acidic and tropical fruity notes with an ever-changing complexity. Days of stone grinding achieve a silky texture. Leaving this cacao unconched creates a bold, primitive, fruity character that is up- front and intense. Flavor notes include lime and passion fruit. (Light roast, unconched) |
