The cocoa used in Cuyagua Dark Chocolate Limited Edition comes from the Cuyagua plantation in Venezuela. Amano's Cuyagua bar is a single origin chocolate bar with a complex flavor; rich chocolate (70%) with notes of spices. Fine chocolate is a growing industry. Amano is the best reviewed of all the American chocolate makers and their award winning chocolate has been honored by domestic and international associations. All bars have awards from the prestigious London Academy of Chocolate. Amano chocolate can pair with fine wines and ports. Tasting gourmet chocolate is very much like tasting fine wine using the same language for descriptions. Chocolate tastings are becoming as popular as wine tastings. Each 2 oz. bar is individually foil wrapped and beautifully boxed. Each box is printed on high grade paper providing a luxurious feel in the hand. The painting on the Cuyagua box is an original piece of artwork by artist Marcia Baldwin, commissioned by Amano Artisan Chocolate.
