Pacari

70% raw chocolate made from Arriba Nacional cocoa beans

Pacari means nature in Quechua, the Ecuadorian language of the natives.

Santigao Peralta, the founder of Pacari, won almost all of the awards at the 2012 International Chocolate Awards :

Dark plain / organic bars (dark, pure organic bars) - Pacari 70% Raw
Special Awards: 4 prizes:
Gold Chocolate Maker: Pacari Chocolate (Ecuador) - 70% Raw Organic and Biodynamic

Gold Directly Traded Cacao: Pacari Chocolate (Ecuador) - 70% Raw Organic and Biodynamic
Gold Organic: Pacari Chocolate (Ecuador) - 70% Raw Organic and Biodynamic

And that is exactly what the two Ecuadorian pioneer founders are all about. The quality of the chocolate is very good. All ingredients come from organic farming and are traded according to fair trade principles. So the farmers have their regular income and Pacari the best possible quality.

The Arriba Nacional cocoa bean, native to Ecuador, is grown by smallholders across the country. Pacari supports the farmers in the cultivation and processing of the sensitive plants and thus ensures sustainable cultivation. Only the best quality farmers are allowed to sell their beans to Pacari. The beans come mainly from the three regions: Esmeraldas, Manabi and Los Rios. The different properties of the soil produce a wonderful variety of aromas. From floral citrus notes to banana notes and nut flavors, everything can be clearly distinguished from each other. Only beans from Ecuador are used.

Enjoy a piece of nature. The 70% raw chocolate made from Arriba Nacional cocoa beans is suitable for a vegan diet .
