Maker Comments | La Red Guaconejo was our favorite farm we visited in 2014. Working with over 150 local farmers who use sustainable agroforestry systems rather than conventional monoculture, La Red was a model for fine flavor cacao fermentation. Sadly, La Red closed its doors in 2015, unable to pay farmers for their beans. We were lucky enough to obtain the last bags from this very special co-op. Once our supply is depleted, that will be the end of this bar. We hope they come back. Tasting notes: red berries, mocha. |
