Maker Comments | Guaniamo (Amazonas) cacao is grown in the Amazonian river basin of Venezuela, thought to be the birthplace of cacao. This wild Forastero cacao is harvested by local Piaroa Indigenous communities. It is a two-day canoe trip or one day 4x4 expedition across wood plank bridges and dense jungle to bring this varietal from the Amazonian basin to the nearest roads for Tisano Cacao who then drives another 10 hours to their warehouse before shipping to us. Tasting notes: blackberries, mocha, cashew. |
