This cacao comes from the area of Baracoa in the Guantánamo province in the Northeast of Cuba. Baracoa lies on the Bay of Honey (Bahía de Miel) and is surrounded by a wide mountain range (including the Sierra del Purial), which causes it to be quite isolated. Baracoa is nowadays not only a cacao growing region
but it is also Cuba’s main chocolate manufacturing area.

Tasting profile: This Cuban chocolate is medium bodied with a light acidity and medium bitterness, containing flavors of wood (royal palm & mahogany), tobacco, cream and nuts.
