Description

To craft this award-winning bar, Monsoon Chocolate partnered with Ucayali River Cacao, a fermentary that works with nearly 400 cocoa farmers along the Ucayali River outside the Peruvian city of Pucallpa. The region has a long and complex history of narco-trafficking and the presence of the Shining Path militant group. Ucayali River Cacao has partnered with the United States Agency for International Development and Alianza Peru to offer a premium for wet cacao, giving local farmers access to an alternative market to cocaine. The Ucayali bar has a deep, dark chocolate flavor lightly mellowed by certified organic milk to create a luxurious treat with perfect flavor and a velvety melt-in-your-mouth texture. These delicious treats are hand-crafted in Tucson, Arizona.

Monsoon Chocolate

Based in Tucson Arizona, award-winning chocolate maker Monsoon Chocolate draws inspiration from local ingredients in the American Southwest to transform transparently-sourced cacao from all over the world into craft chocolate bars, bon bons, confections, desserts, and beverages. Monsoon Chocolate collaborates with the farm workers who grow, harvest, ferment, and dry natural cacao. Monsoon honors their hard work by processing the cacao as minimally as possible to reveal and enhance the flavors inherent in these magnificent beans.
