About Piura 70%
Maraná is a bean-to-bar producer based in Peru that focuses on showcasing the diversity of Peruvian cacao. By working directly with local farmers, the maker ensures that each bar reflects the specific characteristics of the region where the pods are harvested.
This 70% bar highlights the Blanco de Piura bean, a rare variety known for its light color and distinct flavor profile. The chocolate presents a bright, acidic character with prominent citrus notes of lemon and orange, rounded out by the sweetness of golden raisins.
The production follows organic standards, ensuring care for the agricultural process. While the bar is crafted to highlight the purity of the Blanco de Piura bean, production takes place in a facility that also handles milk and nuts, which may be present as traces.
