Chuao 70%

Green Bean to Bar Chocolate is a Japanese artisan maker that oversees the full production process in-house. By maintaining complete control from raw cacao bean to the finished bar, the maker ensures that each step is performed by hand. This specific 70% bar highlights the unique heritage of cacao from Chuao, Aragua, in Venezuela.

The flavor profile of this bar reflects the careful handling of the harvest. The cacao beans undergo a traditional fermentation process followed by sun-drying for 6 days in the village church plaza of Chuao. On the palate, the bar presents layers of prune, stone fruit, and tropical fruit, underscored by a characteristic bright acidity. In recognition of its profile, the bar received a Bronze award at the 2023 International Chocolate Awards Asia-Pacific.

The composition of the bar is kept minimal to allow the origin characteristics to remain the primary focus. It is produced using a simple combination of two ingredients, specifically cacao beans and organic sugar, with no additional additives or emulsifiers.
