Maker Comments | In a rather dry region the small cocoa village of Las Trincheras lies in a steep valley, on the hillside this superb cocoa grows under shade trees. With tropical conditions and plenty of warm rain the valley's own microclimate is ideal for this fine cocoa. After harvesting, the beans are brought by donkeys to the central drying area and dried in the sun. Tasting notes: ripe banana, mild, earthy notes and tropical wood, a wisp of vanilla. |
