75% Honduras Wampusirpi
Wampusirpi is a municipality located in the remote rainforest of the La Mosquitia region of Honduras. The region is so remote that most of it is only accessible by canoe via the Patuca River. Add to that challenging conditions for drying and fermenting cacao, and you might think these beans were never meant to be.
Working with local Miskito families in the Wampusirpi region, Cacao Direct producer Jorge Schmidt and his team overcame all odds to produce beautifully fermented and exceptionally tasty cocoa beans. The result translates to a smooth and buttery dark chocolate, with a tiny tang of citrus and a hint of slow roasted almonds and walnuts.
