Flavor Characteristics
Offering a medium-bodied experience, these cocoa beans exhibit a
delightful citrus acidity complemented by vibrant hints of dried
cranberries, culminating in a nuanced and nutty finish.
Storage - Shipment
After drying, the beans are stored in jute bags of 60 to 70 kilos.
These bags are stamped and numbered. A series of samples are
taken to assess the quality of the beans. Then, the cocoa beans
are ready to be traded on the international market.
