Origin & Craftsmanship
This bar is crafted by Cacaosuyo in Peru, using rare Porcelana (white cacao) beans from the Piura region. What makes it special is the addition of roasted cacao nibs on top—intended to add texture and deepen the cocoa flavor without introducing extra sweetness. 

Flavor Profile
This bar delivers a vibrant, fruity intensity balanced by roast and crunch. You’ll notice citrus brightness, tart cherry, apricot, and yuzu notes combined with the roasty character of the nibs. The crunch adds a satisfying bite that underscores the chocolate’s purity. 

Ingredients & Allergens
Organic cacao mass, organic sugar, cocoa butter, cacao nibs. May contain traces of milk, tree nuts, or peanuts. 

Tasting & Pairing Guide

Let the bar rest on your tongue to first experience the fruity brightness—yuzu, citrus, cherry—then let the roast from the nibs and the cocoa depth emerge. Pair it with a crisp, floral white wine like Sauvignon Blanc or a dry sherry to mirror its citrus notes. For non-alcoholic pairings, a jasmine or bergamot tea will complement the fruity edge. To highlight the crunch, enjoy it alongside roasted nuts or a nutty biscotti.

Summary

The Piura Nibs 70% bar is a bold and nuanced expression of Piura’s white cacao, elevated by the tactile contrast of roasted cacao nibs. It balances fruit-forward writing with textural intrigue—ideal for chocolate lovers who appreciate both purity and crunch in their bars.

Keep in a cool, dry place, away from direct light and strong odors. Store at maximum
18 ° C in its original packaging

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.

To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.

On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
