Cacao Region

Aragua, Venezuela

Aragua State is located squarely in northern Venezuela, along the central coast. The region encompasses a variety of climes, including beaches, plains, and jungles, the latter of which is home to one of the state’s many industries: cacao farming. The municipalities of Choroní, Ocumare, and Chuao are some of the most famous & historic cacao-growing areas of Venezuela, as well as the home of— arguably— its most beautiful beaches. In Ocumare the main industries are fishing and cacao production, while Chuao is famously close to the capital city of Caracas, but difficult to get to. The village is only accessible by travelling via boat from nearby Choroní, and then trekking a few miles inland.

Dark Fudge

I generally don’t go with chocolate where the first ingredient is chocolate liquor but I like Venezuela cacao and I like the 85%. Overall this bar is like nutty dark fudge. Not too sweet but just enough. The cacao flavor comes through surprisingly. Finishes slightly dry/cocoa powdery with a pleasant nutty/bitter aftertaste.

Intense flavor, almost burned.

First time trying this Venci product. I prefer
75%.
