Experience the intensity of Alter Eco's 96% dark chocolate. Sourced from the San Martin region of Peru, this organic, high-cacao bar is a study in purity.
Alter Eco is a U.S. based producer dedicated to crafting chocolate with a deep focus on sustainability and environmental stewardship. Unlike mass market manufacturers, they operate with a clear mission to support small scale farming communities. This particular bar represents an uncompromising approach to quality, highlighting the distinct terroir of the San Martin region in Peru.
The Noir Pérou Intense Dégustation is a bold 96% dark chocolate bar that demands attention. Crafted from Trinitario cacao, the beans undergo a meticulous 7 day fermentation process in wooden crates and are sun dried for up to 21 days to develop their profile. The recipe is remarkably minimal, consisting of 91% cocoa paste, 4.5% cocoa butter, a touch of cane sugar, and fragrant vanilla beans. The result is an incredibly dense, low sugar experience that allows the raw, earthy characteristics of the Peruvian harvest to take center stage.
Beyond the sensory experience, the bar reflects a commitment to ethical production. Every ingredient is sourced under rigorous Organic and Fair Trade standards. By prioritizing these certifications, the producer ensures that their supply chain supports the livelihoods of farmers while maintaining ecological health in the regions where their cacao is cultivated.
