Cacao powder ECUADOR Arriba National

This single-origin cocoa powder is made from cacao grown in the coastal regions of Ecuador, the birthplace of the legendary Arriba Nacional variety. The unique climate, fertile soils, and proximity to the Pacific Ocean create ideal conditions for developing a complex aroma profile with distinctive floral and fruity notes.

The cacao beans undergo traditional fermentation and careful processing to preserve the natural aroma and distinctive flavor of the Nacional variety as much as possible. As a result, the cocoa powder has a rich chocolate flavor with subtle notes of flowers, dried fruit, and nuts—the qualities for which Ecuadorian cacao is prized worldwide.
