This bar is a tribute to the sacred smoke of the Palo Santo wood. Qantu smokes the beloved Bagua 70% chocolate with Palo Santo. You can smell its scent as the piece of chocolate melts in your mouth. On the palate you can feel a spicy and floral sensation at the same time. An unparalleled experience.

In order to support the Palo Santo reforestation of the dry forest in Dotor - Piura, $2 for each bar sold will be given DIRECTLY to the community which independently protects this forest, cradle of an incredible biodiversity.

Palo Santo is an aromatic sacred wood that grows in northern Peru, in the dry forest of Piura. With thousands of years of history and it is still used today as an incense, its aroma inevitably gives a feeling of peace.

Maker

Qantu

Qantu is a chocolate maker based in Montreal. Qantu was started by Elfi and Maxime in 2016. This pair fell in love with bean to bar chocolate after researching cocoa after their first plantation visit in 2014. The immense passion and pride of the cocoa producers inspired them to create bean to bar chocolate. Qantu focuses on Peruvian cacao for the moment, which is where Maxime and Elfi met over a decade ago in Elfi’s home country. The name “ Qantu” (pronounced “Kantu”) derives from the name of the national flower of Peru and Bolivia. The word comes from the native language of the Peruvian Andes, Quechua, it represents a symbol of unity and hospitality.

Cacao Region

Amazonas, Peru

Amazonas is an Amazonian department of Peru, located in the north of the country. The vast and deep Marañón valley is partially located in Amazonas, and constitutes one of the most important physical features of the region. With a tropical landscape that includes steep river gorges and mountains, most of the department is still a part of the rainforest, an integral part of its main economic activity: agriculture. The most important crops in Amazonas are coffee, rice, cacao, and a variety of regional fruit trees.

A genuinely different bar for the most adventurous palates

This bar is unlike any other - and I've had smoked chocolate bars before. There's a lot going on here, with slight salted caramel tones and warm smoky aridness with a full, deep chocolate flavor. It's delicious, unexpected, very enjoyable, well balanced yet utterly surprising.
