 GRAND CRU
ONE OF THE FINEST QUALITY
GRAND CRU COCOA
The Dominican Republic produces sought-after and fine cocoa with highly distinctive flavours. The diversity of the landscape gives Dominican cocoa extremely varied aromatic qualities. One of the finest qualities of Grand Cru cocoa is found in Los Bejucos where the subtropical climate with 80% relative humidity
and three underground rivers which constantly irrigate the soil. The cocoa from this geographical area has a pleasant clear colour with a highly intense aromatic profile and has been awarded a Certificate of Designated Origin. From the Province of Duarte come the “Los Palmaritos” and “Los Vasquez”
Grand Cru varieties: two plantations located in the same area but with highly distinctive aromatic profiles. “Los Palmaritos”, on harsh mountain terrain, has a fruity fragrance, ”Los Vasquez”comes from a very different plantation due to the lie of the land and shaded areas, and offers a more intense and acid taste.
