Origine du cacao : Pérou
Pays producteur : Pays-Bas

Norandino est une coopérative agricole présente dans le nord du Pérou, spécialisée dans les cultures comme le café et le cacao. Ils se procuraient ces haricots dans les villages de Palmas, Puerta Palache et Las Lomas dans la vallée de San Lorenzo, tous deux situés dans la vallée de Piura. Le terroir ici est unique : il s'agit essentiellement d'une forêt sèche avec seulement quelques mois de pluie par an, les agriculteurs utilisent donc l'eau des Andes pour maintenir les arbres hydratés. Les haricots sont également uniques : Piura Blanco est une mutation albinos rare qui a commencé à évoluer autour du désert de Sechura il y a au moins 1 000 ans. Les cacaos blancs comme le Piura Blanco ne représentent qu'environ 0,1 % de la récolte mondiale et ne sont pas couramment utilisés pour le chocolat au lait. Dans cette barre, le profil fruité et léger des grains est à la fois contrasté et complété par la saveur sucrée/acidulée du lait. La texture est onctueuse comme du beurre, avec un arrière-goût persistant de noisette et crémeux. Mmmm...

Heinde & Verre Lisse Piura Pérou Lait 61%

Heinde & Verre, meaning "near and far," pays homage to the Dutch culinary tradition of sourcing ingredients worldwide and combining them with local customs, perfectly reflecting Milou’s belief in the synergy of global and local economies. The two guys behind the name, Jan-Willem & Ewald, are serious chocolate geeks and have developed several in-house techniques that make their bars standout: slow food level stuff like stone grinding for up to three days, aging their chocolate mass, sorting beans by hand, and split-roasting single origin beans into multiple batches, each receiving a unique roast profile, and then blending back together by taste. They use only traceable ingredients and work with trusted single estates and cooperatives. Their facility is a carbon-free, fully electric factory powered and heated by 100% Dutch green wind energy. And as if that wasn’t enough to love about them, just wait until you see the cleverness of their packaging, which includes kraft paper pouches with double airtight seal to protect against odors, light, humidity, and oxidation. The outside sticker states the name, farmer, and origin region, while unfolding the box reveals the H&D philosophy, a map showing ingredients and their origin, and a QR code linking to the story, tasting notes, farmer's photos, and other details of each bar, as well as nutritional value in four languages. As if that’s not good enough, each box comes with not one but two bars!

Piura, situated in northwestern Peru and bordered by Ecuador to the north and the Pacific Ocean to the west, boasts South America's westernmost point and the lowest point in the Southern Tropics. Its unique geography is defined by the convergence of the cold Humboldt Current and warm El Niño Current, resulting in both tropical and arid conditions, exemplified by the Sechura Desert, one of the world’s few tropical deserts. The region features a diverse landscape, including savannah-like scrub, stunning beaches, and small valleys with typical tropical climates, ideal for rice and coconut cultivation. Piura has a rich cultural history, with the Yungas, Vicús, Mochicas, and Incas leaving their mark before the Spanish established Piura as their third city in South America. This rich history has fostered a vibrant mix of mestizo, creole, and indigenous cultures. The name Piura, meaning "abundance" in Quechuan, reflects its fertile lands, while its current nickname, "The city of eternal heat," underscores its consistently hot climate.
