This chocolate bar is crafted using single-estate cacao beans from Fazenda Camboa, Brazil.
From Adam Dick, Owner/Head Chocolate Maker of Dick Taylor:
Fazenda Camboa, in the Bahia region of Brazil, was founded in 1942 by the Carvalho family. What started as a small family farm quickly grew to be one of the most important estates in the area. Sadly, the farm almost closed in the 90's as they suffered through years of a cacao disease called Witches Broom, which destroyed nearly 96% of the farms annual output. Despite the hardship the Carvalho family, using their tremendous amount of experience, has battled back by, and little by little has rebuilt volume and greatly improved quality. Now, building on a solid foundation, they have grown to become the largest organic producer of cacao in the region. We are pleased to be one of the few American chocolate makers to be using this cacao. We feel like the rich history shines through in a very unique and highly enjoyable chocolate.
