Description
70% Dark Bean to Bar Chocolate crafted by Mikkel Friis Holm.
Chuno is a single variety produced by Ingemann Fine Cocoa in Nicaragua. Its pods are characterized by its yellow-green colors and its wide and elongated form. It was the 12th cocoa to be designated Heirloom and second from Nicaragua.
The Chuno cocoa variety is harvested from a group of around 90 Cocoa Farmers in the Region of San José de Bocay in the Jinotega department in Northern Nicaragua. San José de Bocay is surrounded by Bosawas, the largest forest reserve in Central America and the third largest in the world. One of the producers ‘motivations to continue expanding the cocoa plantations has been the reforestation of the areas towards the Bosawas reserve and the conservation of secondary forests that have been razed by other plantings and livestock.
