PURE COCOA PASTE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC

Dominican Republic - San Francisco de Macoris

Description

Made from the same cocoa beans than our Samana Chocolate. The aromatic profile of Hispañola Superior cocoa beans comes into its own with this paste and its liquorice, pepper and nutmeg notes.

Origin

Unlike major producers, the Dominican Republic has managed to hold onto its plantations' genetic roots. Since its marine soil, fewer chemical products are used meaning its cocoa production is among the purest in the world. An exceptional cocoa bean from the Trinitario plant and “Hispañola Superior” type grabbed the attention of Chocolaterie de l’Opéra.
