About Acará River 81%
Luisa Abram is a bean-to-bar maker based in Brazil. This 81% dark chocolate bar draws its character from Amelonado cacao beans sourced from the Acará River region in the Amazon.
The cacao for this bar undergoes an artisanal fermentation process performed by women from local families living along the Acará and Arauaia rivers. The resulting chocolate offers a flavour profile marked by pineapple, brownie, caramel, candied fruits, and nuts. The maker discloses that this bar is tempered.
The bar contains only cacao beans, cane sugar, and added cacao butter. It is free from lecithin, vanilla, vanillin, PGPR, and vegetable fats. The bar received the Academy of Chocolate Bronze award in 2021.
