Cocoa Bean Origin: Pangoa, Junin, Peur
Notes: Denise Castronovo returned to the Cacao and Chocolate Salon in Lima, Peru on a mission to find the perfect cacao. After tasting her way through a dozen regions, the Pangoa cocoa beans stood out for their flavour and story.
Nestled in the high jungle of Junin, where the rivers converge and native cacao varieties intertwine, Pangoa offers a naturally complex flavour born of biodiversity. Two indigenous communities journey along the Rio Tambo to bring their cocoa beans from distant forest villages to this region where Peru's oldest fermentation facility and expert craftsmanship lies.
International support has transformed the communities to peace and built a better future for farmers.
This chocolate is a tribute to resilience, flavour and the Amazon itself. By choosing it, you are directly supporting these communities and helping to protect one of the world's most vital ecosystems.
