| Maker Comments | In the luxuriant shade of the plantations, the Forastero of the Amenolado variety in Equador has given rise to a rare, aromatic and slightly bitter cocoa: the Nacional. It will only grow on this land which, strangely, has given it an [sic] unique aroma of flowers and dried grasses...like the scent of an infusion. |
