Black Sheep Chocolate

Costa Esmeraldas, Ecuador

The region of Esmeraldas, where Eco Cacao was founded, is rich with fine and aromatic varieties of cacao which often grow in biodiverse agroforestry systems. Eco Cacao grows ‘nacional complex’, a varietal that is a mix of EET clones from Ecuador’s Nacional hybridization program. High-quality varieties such as nacional, while prized for their aroma and flavor, are often challenged by poor yields and greater susceptibility to disease

Wonderful Dark Chocolate

While the fragrance hinted at spice and sweet, those notes in the chocolate did not overpower the darker flavor of the chocolate itself. The result is a smooth flavor that does not have a bitter edge yet delivers the dark chocolate I love.
