DESCRIPTION:

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.

Ingredients: Cocoa beans *, cane sugar *, cocoa butter *, Palo Santo sacred smoke. May contain traces of milk and nuts

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.

Collection title: Amazonas, Peru

Collection description: 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.

Collection title: Piura, Peru

Collection description: Piura is a department of northwestern Peru, bordered in the north by Ecuador and on the west by the Pacific Ocean. Several rivers run through the province from the region’s mountainous zones, serving to keep the coastal plantations naturally well-irrigated and productive year-round. The region is the second most-populous in the country, responsible for roughly a third of Peru’s annual petroleum production, as well as a significant amount of its mining. Similar to the rest of the country, much of Piura’s agriculture relies upon commercialized crops, such as sorghum, rice, corn, and yucca, though an increasing amount of native criollo cacao is being cultivated throughout the region.

Collection description: These chocolates do not list soy products as a main ingredient. Some of the chocolates say: "may contain traces of soy" where perhaps a very small amount may have come in contact with the food due to shared equipment or facility usage. Each product has icons that indicate whether a product is completely soy free or may contain traces.

More excellence from Qantu

Qantu has become my favorite chocolate and this is another hit.

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.
