Ají Yuquitania 70% is a Colombian dark chocolate featuring cacao from Putumayo, balanced by the warmth of native Yuquitania pepper.
Produced by the Colombian maker Fruto de Cacao, the Ají Yuquitania 70% bar highlights the regional character of the Putumayo department. Fruto de Cacao operates as a specialty producer, focusing on the distinct profiles of Colombian cacao. This specific bar earned recognition at the 2do Concurso Nacional de Chocolate Colombiano, where it was awarded a bronze medal for its execution.
The sensory profile of this 70% bar is characterized by sweetness reminiscent of brown sugar paired with bright red fruit notes and grounded by woody undertones. The inclusion of Yuquitania pepper creates an aromatic lift that distinguishes this bar from traditional plain dark chocolates. The ingredients consist of cocoa mass, sugar, sunflower lecithin, and the specific pepper variety.
Fruto de Cacao maintains a focused approach to ingredient quality. Consumers should note that while the primary ingredients are straightforward, the facility handles other materials, as the bar may contain traces of milk, nuts, and peanuts.
