Organic Fairtrade 85% Peruvian Chocolate - 100g
Description
Peru is blessed with 60% of the global genetic diversity of cocoa trees and in the past 10 years increased cocoa exports have helped drive new economic growth. Cited in the Alto Huayabamba region in the heart of the Peruvian Amazon, the Acopagro Cooperative has been bringing together small producers for more than 15 years, enabling them to move out of cocaine production and into cocoa.
Thanks to new production methods and the benefits of Fairtrade, this Coop has converted to organic growing and has planted new cocoa trees. With its own fermentation centre, it’s a pioneer in the field of reforestation and environmental conservation.
