CHF 11.40

Dark chocolate 70% Gran Blanco from Peru. This Cru de Terroir is distinguished by a magnificently fresh ton and a subtle fruity acidity supported by spicy and wooden notes.





Description

With our 70% dark chocolate Alto Piura 70, we pay tribute to Peru, one of the birthplaces of wild original cacao. It has preserved a rich heritage of native varieties, including the famous white beans of Gran Blanco cacao.

Rediscovered in 2008 by passionate sourcers, this white cacao has since been cultivated in the Alto Piura Valley in northwestern Peru. There, Gran Blanco reveals all its nobility—recognized as one of the finest in the world.

Our Gran Blanco beans are grown by a cooperative of small producers, according to the strictest rules of sustainable development and fair trade. Located at less than 800 metres above sea level, the plantations are exclusively worked using organic farming methods.

The farmers cultivate these plantations, located below 800 meters in altitude, exclusively according to the principles of organic farming.

Born from expert bean-to-bar craftsmanship, this 70% dark chocolate Alto Piura 70 highlights a rare origin, enhanced by ORFÈVE’s artisanal excellence.
