We are proud of this first-class chocolate.  Made from single variety, single origin  cacao beans which were grown in a coastal forest of Esmeraldas, Ecuador, Nova Monda's Cacao Nacional has chocolate information & reviews" target="_blank">won acclaim, "Classifications aside, a top line chocolate. The only caveat: it happens so fast that it leaves T-buds (for Taste) lusting & drooling in its wake." The shorter fermentation needed for this variety, and careful attention to custom roasting bring out a flavor profile that is second to none.

Gregory Landua, our wandering cacao hunter and director of development, who brought this treasure back to Colorado from Ecuador, describes our Cacao Nacional:

This chocolate begins with all the riotous color of a flock of macaws feeding in the amazonian rain forest, then transitions to a subtle middle of red wine and raspberry cream sauce eaten off the voluptuous lips of a lover, finishing off with the sharp breath of the Andes mountains.
