About

Peru Marañón 72%

Feitoria do Cacao is an artisan chocolate maker based in Aveiro, Portugal. The brand focuses on the bean-to-bar process, managing production from raw material to the finished product in its Portuguese workshop.

The Peru Marañón 72% utilizes the rare Pure Nacional bean variety sourced from the Marañón region. These beans undergo a specific 6-day fermentation process in wooden boxes followed by sun drying. The resulting chocolate is crafted using only cocoa beans, cane sugar, and added cocoa butter, processed and refined in a melanger to achieve its final texture.

The bar has earned recognition from various industry organizations, receiving silver honors at the Academy of Chocolate and the International Chocolate Awards. Its development reflects the technical approach taken by the makers to preserve the characteristics of the Marañón harvest.
