| Maker Comments | The 226 Story: This Organic and Fair Trade cacao is from the Bellavista cooperative along the Rio Huallaga in the San Martin Region of central Peru. Its flavor complexity is among the most interesting we have encountered. Notes of red fruit and banana are enhanced by naturally occurring tannins, resulting in a complex array of flavors. Our slow, dark roast develops flavors of roasted nuts and berries. Days of stone grinding achieve a silky texture. The chocolate is heated, mixed and aerated--this is conching. Our medium conche refines notes of chocolate, roasted nuts and coffee. (Dark roast, medium conche) |
