Venezuela CHUAO 100% Light Roast Chocolate - LIMITED

Pure Cacao, Unmatched Complexity

For those who seek the purest chocolate experience, our Venezuela Chuao 100% is an unfiltered journey into one of the world's most revered cacaos. Chuao, a small village in the northern coastal mountains of Venezuela, has produced some of the finest cacao for generations. Fermented and sun-dried in ancestral courtyards, Chuao cacao is known for its clean, complex flavor—highly coveted by chocolate enthusiasts around the world.

Fresco Chocolate was fortunate to receive a small shipment of authentic Chuao cacao from the 2020 harvest, allowing us to create this rare, single-ingredient artisan chocolate. Crafting a flavorful 100% dark chocolate is a delicate art, requiring precision at every step to balance depth and smoothness. We began with a very light roast, carefully coaxing out Chuao’s natural complexity and subtle fruit-forward notes reminiscent of crème fraîche. Days of stone grinding result in a silky, refined texture, allowing the cacao’s depth to unfold effortlessly on the palate.

Finally, a conching process—using heat and aeration—smooths out any remaining harsh notes from roasting, ensuring a well-rounded and deeply satisfying experience. The result is a dark chocolate that is intensely bold, yet elegantly nuanced—a true expression of Chuao’s unparalleled quality.

No sugar. No additives. Just pure, rare cacao in its most authentic form. Experience Chuao in its purest state.
