2022 sofi™ award-winning Single-origin Peruvian dark chocolate from Quillabamba, by the Specialty Food Association. The sofi™ awards have been honoring the best in specialty food since 1972.
Our darkest bar yet! Expertly crafted from 100% origin contamana cacao beans sourced from the Cusco valley of Peru, an ancestral home of cacao, this mouthwatering bar will change perceptions of dark chocolate. Rich, aromatic cacao gives way to notes of strawberries and plum, with creamy dark cacao lending a slight citrus acidity on the back palate.
Quillabamba valley is in the beautiful Cusco region, near famed Machu Picchu and is known for its unique fine aroma cacao trees. The beans are fermented 6 days, dried 5 days with a low roast to retain much of the cacao's natural fruit flavor and acidity. Our Peruvian dark chocolate bar is low in sugar and high in antioxidants, heart-healthy cocoa butter fat, and rich, robust flavor. The 1oz bars are the just-right size for tasting the bold yet nuanced flavors of jcoco.
In addition to paying farmers fairly, jcoco donates 10% of net profits to providing additional support to cacao farmers.
