| Maker Comments | Ecuador is the homeland of the unique "Arriba" Cacao Beans. For centuries, the plantations in Provincia Esmeraldas, have produced this special variety providing a well rounded bitter taste with a wine-like character, finished by a light lemon peel flavor and roasted notes. The origin of "Arriba" goes back to the XIX century, when a Swiss Chocolatier, traveling on the Guayas River, impressed by the aroma, asked workment unloading cacao sacks from a boat, "where does the aroma come from?" They answered "de rio arriba" or from up the river. |
| Comments | Appeared to be over-roasted. |
