Dark chocolate GAYAS 64%

Ecuador - Cerecita

Description

While its composition makes it suitable for all types of use, Gayas 64% has been designed to perfect coatings. With a cocoa butter content of 37%, its fluidity gives a precise amber-brown coating. Its aromatic palette is cocoa-edged, with notes of honey, cooked fruit and soft spices.

Origin

Chocolaterie de l'Opéra works in partnership with the Hacienda Victoria plantation, which is committed to preserving the Nacional Arriba cocoa variety through responsible and sustainable farming practices. Certified by the Rainforest Alliance, this plantation has successfully revitalised a former dry forest through responsible soil management and the replanting of thousands of native trees, thereby protecting local biodiversity. Alongside these environmental standards, the plantation pays particular attention to the well-being of its workers, with staff turnover of less than 1% since the plantation was established in 2011, medical check-ups every two weeks, and Rainforest Alliance-certified facilities.
