Exclusive Premium Cacao from Venezuela and Brazil
Our exceptional cacao originates primarily from two prestigious regions:
Venezuela: Known globally for its fine aromatic cacao, especially from regions such as Chuao, Ocumare, and Sur del Lago, Venezuelan cacao offers a rich, distinctive flavor profile with notes of red fruits, nuts, and floral undertones.
Brazil: Brazilian cacao, predominantly from the Bahia region, is prized for its unique terroir, imparting bold, robust flavors combined with subtler notes of tropical fruits, caramel, and spices.
Each cacao bean undergoes a meticulous and artisanal production process:
