The Esmeraldas Ecuador 70% bar originates from the Salazar family farm located in the Esmeraldas region of Ecuador. This single-origin bar focuses on highlighting the character of the specific harvest lot provided by the family farm.
The post-harvest processing begins with fermentation in stepped wooden boxes, followed by sun-drying on movable racks. During the manufacturing process, the cacao beans, organic sugar, and fresh pressed cocoa butter are refined using a melanger. The resulting bar presents a fruit-forward profile defined by notes of blueberry, blackberry, berry jam, and cabernet grapes.
This product is certified Vegan, Gluten Free, and Soy Free. The manufacturing facility processes various ingredients, so the bar may contain trace amounts of peanuts and tree nuts due to shared equipment.
