On the Pacific coast of Colombia lies the region of Tumaco, an area where Afro-Colombians live in near isolation and engage in subsistence agriculture on the jungle lowland with a few cash crops like cacao. The region is troubled with violence due to its location as a port city and fine cacao offers an opportunity for a positive change in the area.
Castronovo cacao comes from remote rainforest regions that support biodiversity and sacred places, where indigenous communities respect the land.
Enjoy unique flavors from each of their curated origins, where Castronovo finds the best flavors in harmony with the environment and cultural heritage.
