70% Quellouno

Produced by the Norwegian bean to bar maker Vigdis Rosenkilde, this bar spotlights one of the world's most unique cacao lineages. The Chuncho beans are sourced from the Paytiti farm lot in Quellouno, Peru. This remote region is renowned for its biodiversity, providing a spectacular foundation for a chocolate that highlights the precision of a dedicated artisan.

The sensory experience of this 70% dark chocolate is remarkably nuanced. The beans undergo a careful six day fermentation process in wooden boxes followed by traditional sun drying to preserve their volatile aromatic compounds. Upon tasting, the palate is met with a sophisticated harmony of wild berries, the earthy richness of toasted pecan, and a delicate, lingering creaminess.

Minimalism defines the composition of this 60 gram bar, which relies on a clean, three ingredient recipe: cacao beans, cane sugar, and cocoa butter. This restraint allows the intrinsic quality of the Peruvian terroir to take center stage. The bar's excellence has been recognized on the global stage, earning a Silver award at the 2024 International Chocolate Awards for the European region.
