DOMINICAN REPUBLIC | 72% | Dark chocolate
SMALL BATCH - LIMITED EDITION
In Santo Domingo, the cocoa beans are left to ferment in a heap. It is here that they take on the subtle acidity of a ripe current, the smell of tobacco, and -- above all else -- a camphorated, even mentholated freshness. It haunts the mouth.
SINGLE ORIGIN CHOCOLATE
Single origin chocolate is chocolate made from just one variety of cacao bean, grown in one region.
Our single origin chocolate is sourced from one country, one region, and even one single plantation.
Like fine wine or cheese, each cocoa plant has its roots; an origin that gives it its typicality. A taste that connoisseurs -- you, soon! -- work to identify with pleasure.
Have you ever heard of terroir?

THE PLANTATION
Conacado Cooperativa was founded in 1985 as a place where producers could earn a higher wage and raise their standard of living. They observed the best practices in the game, and built a business model focused around high quality product, sustainable farm management, and community development. Fairtrade Conacado Cooperativa has also obtained the most demanding CSR certifications. It is a privilege to partner with Valrhona, one of our dearest suppliers. Visit the plantation.
