About the product" We travel to farms all over Vietnam and purchase carefully selected cocoa beans from Ba Ria Vung Tau and Ben Tre. These cacao beans are purchased directly from farms through fair trade, and imported and sold directly to Japan without intermediaries. "About purchasing" I believe that the factors that affect the flavor of cacao beans are variety, soil, weather, cultivation method, fermentation and drying, storage and transportation, but the most important of these is the fermentation process. It can be said to be the most important factor that determines the aroma and flavor of chocolate and cocoa.
Our organic criollo cacao beans are a unique variety grown in the amazon region of Peru. Criollo cacao beans are known for their higher nutritional content and wonderful taste and aroma.
Contrary to industry standards, our cacao is fermented for a shorter period of time in order to preserve its nutrients. Our Raw Criollo Cacao Nibs are a great alternative to cacao beans, as they are de-husked and in a smaller, much easier to consume form factor. They can be consumed as a snack on their own, but can also add a lovely cacao flavour to cereals, snacks, and other preparations.
