What is Colombian chocolate making known for?

Colombia is both a rising cacao origin and a maker country, and its makers work almost entirely with home-grown Colombian cacao. The Colombian makers on Chof are bean-to-bar, and Colombian fine-flavour cacao and bars now sell abroad.

Colombia makes chocolate from its own cacao, tying the maker scene tightly to the origin. Most Colombian cacao used to be consumed at home. Investment in fine-flavour growing and fermentation has since brought Colombian beans and bars to buyers abroad.

The makers on Chof are bean-to-bar, working with cacao from regions like Santander, Tumaco and the Sierra Nevada. The bars are typically rounded and approachable. You can explore the cacao itself on the Colombia origin page.
