Our taste experts came across the Trinitario cocoa bean in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta Region & highlands. An unexpected find unveiling its full potential in this unique dark citrusy and acidic chocolate.
Our beans are mainly sourced from the Mekong Delta, often referred to as Asia’s ‘Little Venice’. We closely collaborate with small, family-owned plantations, which cultivate their beans with tremendous care. Each tree is always carefully selected, grafted, cultivated and maintained, safeguarding the unique flavor of the beans. This region’s terroir is ideal for cultivating Trinitario cocoa. The soil’s low pH lend the cocoa its delicious acidic bite.
Thanks to our unique Cacao-Trace fermentation process, we have managed to retain the Trinitario bean’s natural acidity and awaken the unique flavor notes within. Our local fermentation experts in the Bê'n Tre Province always guarantee the full expression of the bean’s flavor.
This Origins Vietnam 73% dark chocolate is overwhelming the senses with the pronounced acidic taste of the Trinitario cocoa bean, zesty citrus notes, light mokka and the warm undertones of wood. Guaranteed by our Cacao-Trace experts in Bê’n Tre.
