Wild-Harvested Juruá Amazon Rainforest 70% Dark Chocolate

Hidden for centuries along the Amazon Rainforest’s Jurua River, this extremely rare cacao is pure pleasure. Lush nuances of malt, sweet spice, and moss in a velvety finish.

This bar was made with a unique genetic strain of wild cacao that only grows along the banks of the Jurua River in Brazil’s Upper Amazon and is foraged by hand by locals who are paid well for their effort. Magnificent and mysterious like the jaguar — a national symbol of Brazil — we cannot let this heirloom fruit disappear. Caputo’s Wild Jurua 70% bar is sponsored by Caputo’s Preservation Program which fights to preserve wild cacao and its biodiversity.
