Maker Comments | The renowned cocoa village of Chuao lies in pristine jungle on the Caribbean coast of Venezuela. Accessible only by small boats known as lanchas, it has lived on cocoa cultivation since time immemorial. A path leads up from the beach through shady cocoa plantations to the village. Its remoteness has led to the development of a unique, delicate cocoa mixture. The entire village population works together to look after, harvest and dry the cocoa beans in the sun in the traditional manner on the central church square.
Tasting note: Mild cocoa, ripe pineapple with a hint of lime, subtle spice and roast aroma, nutmeg and roasted almonds. |
