sourcing
Our 72% Peruvian chocolate is sustainably sourced from family owned and operated farms in the high Amazonia region known as Rupa Rupa. Mineral-rich water from the Andes runs off into this area, creating fertile soil ideal for growing fine flavor, high aroma cacao. Learn more about our ethical sourcing process here.

featured review
“Absolutely delectable. The Peruvian chocolates have rapidly become our favorite, the natural fruit notes add subtle layers and complexities. This is especially true in this specific chocolate as the smooth fig flavors are complemented by the middle range rich cocoa flavors, which mutes any bitterness from the dark chocolate followed by the bold nutty pistachios with their unique earthy and herbaceous flavor.”
Putting Farmers First
Working directly with farmers in the region, we cut out the middle man—ensuring that more money goes to the farmers. We also invest in helping to improve post-harvest processes like fermentation and drying, and ensure the quality and flavor profile of the cacao.
