This limited-edition cacao comes from the Sacred Valley of Cusco, Peru — a rare Chuncho variety known for its rich dark chocolate depth and beautifully smooth, full-bodied character.

Grown at altitude and preserved for generations, this is one of the most unique cacao varieties we’ve come across. The flavour is deep, rounded, and effortlessly drinkable — the kind of cacao you keep going back to.

In the shadow of the ancient Inca region, this cacao continues to be cultivated using traditional methods, maintaining its purity, quality, and distinct profile.

The Rare Heirloom:

Chuncho cacao is often called the "mother" of all fine chocolate because it is an ancient, heirloom variety native to the high jungles of Cusco, Peru. Unlike common cacao, Chuncho beans are much smaller and packed with a higher amount of natural cocoa butter, which gives the finished chocolate an incredibly creamy, melt-in-your-mouth texture. What makes it truly special is its flavor; it is naturally sweet and lacks the harsh bitterness found in most dark chocolates, instead offering bright notes of citrus, flowers, and nuts. Because it grows at higher altitudes than almost any other variety, it has developed a unique genetic profile that makes it one of the rarest and most aromatic cacao's in the world
