Collection title: Bahia, Brazil

Collection description: Bahia is one of the largest states of Brazil, located in the east, along the Atlantic coast. Once a monarchial stronghold dominated by slave-centric agriculture and ranching, Bahia is now a domestic manufacturing center and the focal point of Brazil’s re-entry into the fine cacao market. The region was once the largest cacao producer in the country, so reputed that a portion of southern Bahia was nicknamed “Cacao Coast.” Unfortunately, bioterrorism in the 1980’s devastated the country’s crop over the course of just a decade. In the early 2010’s, a number of family farms took it upon themselves to revitalize the local fine flavor cacao industry, which continues to grow annually.

Collection title: Fazenda Leolinda

Collection description: Fazenda is Portuguese for “estate,” and in Brazil, dedicated cacao estates tend to be quite large— Fazenda Leolinda is no exception. Located in the Uruçuca municipality, in the south of Bahia province, the 700 hectare estate is run by owner João Tavares, a third-generation farmer. Tavares conserves roughly 200 hectare of wild native forest, with fully half of his property maintained in the traditional Brazilian style of cabruca, most comparable to the concept of agroforestry. This means that crops are grown in complementary layers which naturally maintain balance in the soil & ecosystem and create year round income for farmers. Although the team doesn’t use their award-winning cacao to craft any chocolate of their own, it continues to be used by many chocolate makers in Brazil and around the world.

Perfect!

I've never had umbu fruit before the first time I had this bar. The pieces of candied umbu fruit are a bit chewier than I would have expected (but still not super chewy) but they go with the chocolate so perfectly!

Well balanced

I love sweet + sour things, and the umbu rounds out the chocolate really well.

Great

Fantastic
