Amedei Chuao 70%

The name Chuao brings to mind the legend of Mayan cocoa, the sacred drink from the primeval earthly paradise where the “food of the gods” used to grow. Chuao was a true challenge for Amedei: difficult to purchase and process, this wild bean needed to be "tamed” as no-one had ever tasted it in its pure form. After an aging period of 20 days, this chocolate – unlike any other – keeps developing its taste, improving its acidity and aroma.
