BOHO sources from Maya Mountain Cacao in the Toledo District of southern Belize — a lot so distinctive it has been officially designated Heirloom by the Heirloom Cacao Preservation project, one of only a small handful of origins ever to earn that recognition. Just three organic ingredients, fruit-forward and smooth, and the kind of bar that convinces sceptics chocolate really does come from a fruit.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOrigin \u0026amp; Craftsmanship\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe cacao is gathered from Maya Mountain Cacao and a network of smallholder farms in Toledo, the southernmost and least developed part of Belize, most of them worked by Indigenous Q'eqchi' and Mopan Maya families who are paid well above the West African commodity price for their beans. It's this careful fermentation at origin — Maya Mountain was the first operation in Belize to buy and ferment wet beans centrally to protect quality — that gives the cacao its clarity. BOHO then handles it simply: organic beans, organic cane sugar and a little organic cocoa butter, made by hand in small batches with nothing else added. The restraint is the point; there's nowhere for the origin to hide.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFlavor Profile\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFruit-forward and full-bodied, exactly as BOHO describes it. Maya Mountain cacao is famous for its bright red-fruit character — think berry and a jammy, raisiny sweetness — laid over a smooth, fudgy, brownie-like body that keeps the 70% comforting rather than sharp. A clean, buttery finish rounds it off. Accessible enough for an everyday square, interesting enough for a tasting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAward \u0026amp; Recognition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIndependently recognised on the world stage: BOHO's Belize Maya Mountain 70% is an \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eInternational Chocolate Awards\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e medallist, and the underlying Maya Mountain cacao has itself collected dozens of awards internationally.
