About Macarena 75%

Cacao Disidente is a dedicated bean to bar maker operating directly within Colombia, the heart of its cacao's origin. This specific bar, the Macarena 75%, celebrates the unique terroir of the Macarena region. By working as an artisan producer in a cacao-growing nation, the maker maintains a close connection to the land and the transformative journey of the bean from the orchard to the final 40 gram bar.

Crafted from Trinitario beans, this dark chocolate offers a complex sensory experience that has earned Silver at the International Chocolate Awards in both the Americas and World categories. The flavor profile is characterized by a vibrant acidity of red fruits and citrus, balanced by the natural sweetness of honey and delicate white flowers. Warm notes of sweet spices and a deep cocoa backbone provide a structured, lingering finish.

The quality of this bar is rooted in precise post-harvest techniques where the cacao undergoes fermentation in wooden boxes and is later sun-dried on raised beds. The ingredient list remains pure and minimalist, consisting only of cacao beans, cocoa butter, and organic cane sugar. It is notably clean, containing no lecithin, vanillin, PGPR, or vegetable fats, which allows the authentic character of the Colombian harvest to shine through.
