The government decided to implement cacao beans to create a better and safer economy, warding away the crime and drugs into the country.

Cacao Hunters mission has helped transform the Colombian cacao industry, making it one of the top producers.Cacao Hunters value the indigenous people of the country that help preserve the quality and nature of their hard work that goes into the cacao farming.

Cacao Region

Sierra Nevada, Colombia

The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta is a Colombian mountain range just 50 miles from the Venezuelan border. The region is popular with visitors, in part thanks to the development of cultural tourism infrastructure centered around the indigenous Arhuaco peoples. Cacao from the Sierra Nevada region has become particularly famous thanks to farmers’ high degree of technical expertise— they’re even running their own pollination trials to improve quality and yields.

Cacao Hunters Sierra Nevada 64%

Keeping in mind the use of lecithin, I can say I find this bar very pleasant, fruity, sweet, and spicy. Still prefer the Arhuacos Heirloom though.

Flavorful and complex

Deep liqueur aroma. Tastes of cinnamon, berries, citrus, and a bit of menthol coolness. Delicious and particularly flavorful for the percentage of cacao
