100% Organic Cacao Nibs 16oz Description
|
16 oz resealable bag. Venezuela is renowned for having the worlds best cacao. Venezuelan origin varieties such as Chuao and Porcelana can sell for 5 to 10 times the prices of regular cacaos and make the worlds most expensive chocolates. Treat your palate to the delicate flavors of this single bean origin cacao from OCUMARE, a small farming co-operative on the coastal mountains of Venezuela, where South America meets the Caribbean. Chocolates form Ocumare beans have won many international awards. We are the first and only company to offer 100% USDA Certified Organic Cacao from Venezuela. Founded by my brother and I in order to offer direct from farm to you the wonders of this tropical bean. Be one of the first to try Venzuela's only Organic Cacao. We work direct with the farmers to ensure above fair trade prices are paid and sustainable farming practices are implemented. We buy, export, import, package, distribute and sell direct and can offer this unique product at a discounted rate. We work directly with the processing company to ensure low temperature processing and use an artisan expeller press to produce our powder and butter thus keeping temperature below 120 to keep the antioxidant power of this delicate superfood at a record high. Compare our product with other so called criollo cacao powder, notice how much lighter our powder is, that's because the criollo variety is a lighter colored bean, pink to pure white, where as cheaper inferior Forastero and Trinitario bean varietals are dark purple and dark brown. Criollo cacao beans are the rarest comprising about 10% of world supply, it has delicate flavor tones, such as berries and nuts, very low acidity and full chocolate flavor.

100% Organic Cacao Nibs 16oz customer reviews:

Great Organic Cacao Nibs!
Just want to say that this is a great product. Tastes great! I used some of the product in my Chocolate Imperial Stout with Ancho and Habanero Peppers that I home brewed. Came out with a fantastic chocolate flavor!
Delivers the cacao high pretty well 
I eat raw cacao to stimulate me, that's it. Taste does not matter, although I have found that criollo beans taste the best and seem to stimulate me most. I heard these were criollo so I bought a pound. When I opened the bag, I thought it was too good to be true, it just smelled way too good. I tasted it it, and it was also amazing. Much easier on the bite than the forastero varieties which take much more chewing. I emailed the company asking them about their manufacturing process and they said they heated the beans to 140 degrees F, which is not technically raw, if that matters to you.
This company is among the top for the best tasting cacao beans/nibs on the market so I would definitely recommend.
Back For More
I used 2 pounds of these in a Cocoa Stout that is getting amazing reviews from friends. 1lb.-2oz. post boil and the last 10oz. in the secondary. These nibs taste great for a good price! Real nice Dark Chocolate flavor. They're also REALLY good on Vanilla Ice Cream. I'm buying two more pounds for the next batch.
