Ecuador Arriba Nacional Victoria Ceremonial Cocoa

Ceremonial Cocoa from Hacienda Victoria (full-fat cocoa paste, cocoa paste) 100% Arriba Nacional comes from a plantation in Cerecita, near the coast of Ecuador. This unique cacao is characterized by a fresh fruity flavor with notes of flowers, dark chocolate and nuts.

Hacienda Victoria is certified carbon neutral and is committed to positive social impact, providing a stable income for more than a hundred families and developing a sustainable environment for workers and local wildlife. The cacao is characterized by premium grading and a production potential of more than 2 tons per hectare - contributing to the renaissance of Ecuador's classic Arriba cacao.

The grains are subjected to low-temperature roasting (110°C for 55 minutes), which reveals natural sensory characteristics while retaining delicate flavors, creating a smooth, well-balanced flavor profile.
