About

Equateur 85%

Equateur 85% highlights the specific characteristics of the Nacional Arriba cocoa bean variety. This bar is crafted using cacao sourced directly from the Tesoro Escondido community located in the Chocó region of Ecuador. The focus on this singular origin highlights the unique agricultural profile of the region.

The production process prioritizes the natural qualities of the bean through 5 to 6 days of fermentation and sun drying. With a high cacao content of 85%, the bar relies on a minimalist recipe containing only cocoa beans and blonde cane sugar. On the palate, this formulation reveals floral characteristics accompanied by notes of fresh almond and rose.

Quality and transparency remain at the forefront of this production, as evidenced by the organic certification. By maintaining a clean ingredient list and specific post-harvest protocols, the bar offers a clear representation of its Ecuadorian roots in a standard 70 gram format.
