A multi-award-winning 70% dark chocolate from Cacaosuyo, featuring rare white Porcelana cacao from Piura, Peru, with bright notes of citrus and fruit.
Stockists worldwide.
Cacaosuyo, known as the best kept secret of the Incas, is an artisanal bean to bar maker based in Peru. They specialize in showcasing the extraordinary biodiversity of their home country by working directly with local farmers.
The Piura Nibs bar is a masterclass in texture and brightness. Crafted using a melanger for precise refining, the chocolate highlights the unique 'pre-secado' shaded drying process applied to the beans. On the palate, this 70% dark chocolate is vibrant and complex, offering a distinct flavor journey that ranges from yuzu, lemon, and tart cherry to deep undertones of apricot and tropical fruit, finished with a subtle nuttiness.
Committed to quality through simplicity, the bar contains only organic cacao mass, organic sugar, cocoa butter, and crunchy cacao nibs. This dedication to purity and careful processing has earned the maker significant recognition, including International Chocolate Awards Gold in both 2019 and 2021, alongside a World Silver award, reflecting their standing in the specialty chocolate community.
