Description This bar is made with cacao grown along the mighty Ucayali River in the Amazon jungle. Historically, this was a dangerous coca-growing region with a heavy presence of traffickers. A government program to quell narcos activity in addition to being paid premium prices, farmers are now switching to cacao as an alternate market to cocaine. Ucayali River Cacao is a central fermentary that works with over 400 small family farms with 1-3 hectares of land each. Local varieties of cacao called "comun" and Trinitario clones (never CCN-51) are brought in by boat then carefully fermented, dried and blended to preserve the beautiful flavors of the region. Origin: Pucallpa + Tingo Maria, Peru Tasting notes: mission fig, banana bread, orange blossom
