We set out to track down the most original and noble cacao varieties and share them with you. Our Criollo Blanco comes from the Piura region in Peru and is a rare sub-variety of Criollo cacao. This Criollo Blanco is grown and harvested by farmers who have formed a cooperative in order to assume social responsibility in the region and to establish ecological agriculture. OurCriollo Chuncho comes from the Urubamba Valley - a river that meanders through Inca ruins and reaches the Sacred Valley to Cuzco and Machu Picchu. The Chuncho variety is one of the oldest cacao varieties on this planet - it is even said that the Chuncho is the original cacao from which all other cacao varieties descend. On the page " 100% Criollo Blanco " you will find more detailed information about the cultivation and the harvest. You can find out more about the history of cacao in our blog article " Ritual Cacao - the brown gold ".
