Description
Perú Amazonas ceremonial cocoa 100 g - Chocante
Ceremonial Cacao Perú Amazonas is a 100% natural, full-fat cocoa paste (cocoa mass) of exceptional quality. It comes from the pristine regions of the Peruvian Amazon, specifically the Junín, Ayacucho, Cusco, and Ucayali regions.
This product is obtained from certified, ecological plantations and crops covered by the Rainforest Alliance program, which guarantees the highest quality and respect for the natural environment.
Origin and production process
The cacao is made from premium beans such as Chuncho, VRAE-15, and VRAE-99, known for their unique flavor and aroma. The beans are hand-harvested, then traditionally fermented and dried at low temperatures. This process preserves their raw character and the full nutritional value that is key to the ceremonial qualities of cacao.
Unique properties
Perú Amazonas ceremonial cocoa is distinguished by its deep, intense chocolate aroma, enriched with subtle notes of tropical fruit. The flavor is dominated by nutty and caramel accents, reminiscent of dry, high-quality Belgian chocolate, with a perfectly balanced bitterness and delicate sweetness.
Rich in nutrients and uses
It's not only a unique beverage but also a product valued for its rich nutritional content. Ceremonial cocoa is a source of antioxidants, magnesium, zinc, potassium, and other minerals, as well as valuable plant protein. It's completely vegan, free from added sugar, gluten, lactose, and preservatives, making it a perfect fit for those on a keto diet.
In indigenous cultures of South America, and now in contemporary practices, ceremonial cacao is used as a tool to support meditation, self-development, and communal gatherings, helping to open the heart and mind.
