Description

In Ecuador, ICAM has selected the best local cocoa, the traditional Nacional Arriba.

The taste profile of this chocolate is decidedly floral, with distinctive bitterness accompanied by low acidity and a pleasant touch of astringency. Wide range of aromas typical of cocoa. Towards the end of the taste, a floral bouquet emerges, which lingers in the mouth.
