Los Bejucos is located in the central part of the Dominican Republic. This cocoa is harvested by small producers in the region and then fermented and dried on the Esmeralda estate.
A fine acidity with notes of cassis determines the aroma of this chocolate. Toasted almonds and memories of dark brownies dominate the taste, which lasts wonderfully long.
“Casa Cacao” is not only a manufacturer of exceptional chocolate, but also a hotel and café. In Girona, near Barcelona, Jordi Roca and his team have been producing wonderful chocolates since 2018.
Casa Cacao buys the cocoa directly from the producer and tries to express all the richness of a cocoa bean in a chocolate.
“Each origin, each producer, each batch, each production shows one of the thousand faces that make up the life of cocoa: the soil in which it has grown, the climate that has determined its life, the producer’s work on the soil and on the plant, or the different processing after harvesting, especially during the fermentation and drying phases.”
