These beans are from Piura, one of Peru's most beloved cacao growing regions. They are certified organic and fair trade. They are also rare. Around 50% of each crop are "White Beans," which are prized for their flavor. The intense fruitiness is what sets this chocolate apart from the others we make. Lillie Belle is honored to be able to make this award-winning bar from them.
A note from founder Jeff Shepherd: "Lillie Belle Farms Chocolates began 20 years ago on a whim. I asked my daughter, Lillie and my wife, Belle if I could start selling truffles at the local farmer's markets and name them after them. They reluctantly agreed thinking that it was nothing more than a weird culinary phase. In the beginning it was all trial and error, but people kept coming back and demanding more. Without looking back, I dove head-first into the world of gourmet chocolates made in the grand traditions. Using the finest ingredients I could get my hands on, many of which I grew on my own organic farm, I set out to create a chocolate experience that rivaled the best in the world."
