Criollo Chuao is the purest expression of Venezuelan cocoa, grown in the renowned Chuao region where the climatic conditions and terroir give unique and inimitable characteristics to the cocoa.
This precious variety of Criollo cocoa is renowned for its rarity , with sweet and lingering notes of dried fruit, cream, and flowers.
The national flower of Venezuela, the Cattleya Mossiae, perfectly symbolizes the elegance and exclusivity of this cocoa. Just like the Cattleya, which flourishes proudly among the Venezuelan mountains, the Criollo Chuao embodies the most authentic and pure essence of this land, representing an excellent choice for sophisticated sweet creations.
