Dandelion Chocolate - Tumaco, Colombia - 70% - 56 g

These beans come from the Tumaco region of Colombia, where a small company called Cacao Hunters encourages cacao diversity by working with farmers to cultivate regional varieties. Cacao Hunters buys and blends beans from small farm co-ops, then coordinates export with Uncommon Cacao, a Colorado broker which provides cocoa to chocolate makers willing to pay a premium for high-quality beans.

Veteran chocolate maker Pablo joined their team in 2015, bringing with him a wealth of agricultural knowledge. The 2022 harvest is the second Tumaco profile Pablo has developed, and he relishes the Colombian beans’ magical, creamy aromatics. This bar’s flavors remind Pablo of MILO, a chocolate-flavored malt treat he enjoyed growing up in Cuba — and he tells us he especially enjoys savoring Tumaco chocolate with Cuban coffee, as Mariah Carey tunes play in the background. We aspire to live like Pablo!
