About

Chuao 72%

The Chuao 72% is produced by the Budapest-based maker chocoMe. This bar centers on one of the most legendary cacao regions in the world, the Chuao valley of Venezuela. The beans are sourced from the Empresa Campesina Chuao, a historic farm lot where agricultural traditions remain deeply connected to the land.

The flavor profile presents a complex and rounded character, defined by a medium fruity acidity and an aromatic intensity expected from high-quality Venezuelan cacao. The beans, a hybrid of the Criollo variety, undergo a traditional post-harvest process involving fermentation in wooden boxes for nearly a week, followed by sun-drying in the local Plaza de Secado.

The ingredient list is minimal, containing only cacao beans, sugar, and added cocoa butter. In line with a focus on purity, the formulation excludes additives such as lecithin, vanillin, and vegetable fats, allowing the natural characteristics of the hybrid Criollo beans to remain the primary focus.
