Unveiling the Journey of Fine Chocolate with Unparalleled Traceability
Our Story
–
Our grandparents established hacienda El Carmen, their first cacao for plantation in Los Rios Ecuador in the early 1930s. After years of hard work and surviving Ecuadorian cacao crisis they continued pursuing their dreams of developing the best cacao plantations in the world.
The fourth generation established Hacienda San Jose, a cacao plantation that has been recognized and awarded for having the highest quality cacao beans in Ecuador. This beans known for their fine aroma and distinguished nutty flavors inspired us to make the finest chocolate. Made by Ecuadorian hands, harvested, fermented and dried with our own techniques inherited and improved during the last century.
