Cocoa beans from Nicaragua

Cocoa beans from Nicaragua

From Jinotega to Matagalpa from here come the lovely berry cocoa beans. Between these mountains Jinotega and Matagalpa the large Chuno family cultivates the Nicaraguan beans. The aroma of this cacao fruit tastes fruity berry and very little sour or bitter. This is probably the best combination: a chocolate with a berry flavor.In this package are 1kg of the delicious, not roasted beans. These beans are harvested in the region from October to December and from April to June. Fermented the beans are in wooden boxes and later sun-dried on wooden tables. 

The cocoa beans from Nicaragua, especially those from the regions of Jinotega and Matagalpa are cultivated by the large Chuno family. This family is a network of over 1000 cacao producers in this region. The network consists of farms of all sizes. This network is managed by the company Ingemann in order to relieve the farmers. The company Ingemann is responsible for the collection of the beans and initiates all further logistical processes. Thus, the farmers can fully concentrate on the production of the cocoa beans. With this relief, the quality of the Nicaraguan beans is guaranteed. In addition, the farmers do not have to worry about the risks or the costs of these processes after the harvest. Chuno cocoa producers are part of the four-year Adapta project. This advocates for the resilience of honey and fine cocoa to climatic risks.
There is probably no better dessert combination than chocolate and berries. This cocoa bean combines the best of two worlds. Thus, the bean tastes balanced fruity, berry and sweet. But also light citrus notes are a feature of the cacao bean from Nicaragua. The acidity or bitterness remain discreetly in the background.
These cocoa beans belong to the Trinitario category.
