Haricots originaux Virunga Congo 70%

Origine du cacao : Congo
Pays producteur : Suisse
Poids : 70g

Le cacao est originaire d'Amérique du Sud et, lorsque les fèves ont été introduites en Afrique, elles ont été connues sous le nom de Forasteros (« étrangers »), un terme qui est depuis devenu synonyme de la variété la plus cultivée au monde. Vous pourriez également rencontrer le terme Amelonado , le cultivar traditionnel domestiqué de l'Amazonie brésilienne. Original Beans utilise ce terme mais, quel que soit le nom, ce cacao est indéniablement délicieux. Il incarne la qualité et les caractéristiques du chocolat suisse classique, avec une texture lisse et soyeuse et une saveur rappelant la liqueur de chocolat. Il atteint un équilibre avec juste assez de tannin pour une sensation en bouche satisfaisante et juste assez de douceur pour un arrière-goût délicieux.

Haricots originaux Virunga Congo 70%

Original Beans, like me, aims to create a food culture that regenerates our world and encourages people to think more about what they eat. Since 2008, they have ventured into remote rainforests to source some of the world's rarest (and fairest) cacao beans. By many standards, including the Be Slavery Free organization's "Chocolate Scorecard," they lead the industry in traceability, transparency, and living income, ranking as the #1 most sustainable chocolate company globally. The company's founder, Philipp, left his job at the United Nations with the goal of creating one of the world's first climate-positive companies and, true to his word, Original Beans was the first chocolate maker to pledge planting one tree for every bar sold, use compostable foil, and become carbon neutral. Their dedication to the environment extends to the communities they work with and to the delicious quality of their products, which often finds its way into Michelin-starred restaurants and premier hotels. This isn't surprising given the superior quality of their raw ingredients: wild and foraged cocoa, Swiss dairy milk, and "raw" cane sugar that has not been carbonated or decolorized.

Virunga National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site established in 1925, sprawls across approximately 8000 square kilometers in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, bordering Uganda and Rwanda. The park's diverse landscapes feature a range of elevations, climates, and habitats, boasting both the highest (3000 mm) and lowest (500 mm) recorded rainfalls in the republic. Permanently snow-capped peaks and glaciers grace parts of the Ruwenzori Mountains, while the park also houses two active volcanoes, lava plains, savannas, peat bogs, marshes, and various forests, including tropical rainforest and bamboo. Situated in the Albertine Rift Valley, Virunga is pivotal to the Congo-Nile watershed area, serving as a crucial conservation corridor. Its rich biodiversity includes over 3,000 species, such as the
endangered eastern gorilla, elephants, lions, hippos, and the elusive okapi, making it a focal point for conservation efforts.
