Maker Comments | I fell in love with Rugoso from the first bite. I never before tasted such an unusual and delicate cocoa. When I received the sample, I was not expecting anything possible [sic] more interesting than the already famous and classic Venezuelan cocoa, however it turned out that Rugoso became one of the top 5 bars that I keep on my desk for my own enjoyment. The Rugoso beans have a fresh fruity flavor echoing with the taste of plum and Bing cherries. I invite you to share my experience and become a strong devotee of the finest Nicaraguan cocoa. --Andre V. 48-hour conching process |
