Washu – Chocolate with Uvilla

Made with the variety of fine aroma cocoa called ‘Nacional’. This cocoa is carefully harvested, fermented and dried by farmers from the ASOPROTESCO association on their own farms in Tesoro Escondido in the province of Esmeraldas before being shipped to the Ecuadorian capital to be carefully crafted into our chocolate bars.

Chocolate with dehydrated Uvilla:

This chocolate combines the fruity and floral notes of fine aroma cocoa with the tropical fruit flavor of uvillas. Uvillas and dark chocolate are an excellent combination for health, since both are rich in antioxidants that prevent or delay cell damage and strengthen the cardiovascular system. The Jaguar or pillangela, with its striking and imposing gaze, advances imposingly in the last forests of the Ecuadorian coast. Thanks to its skillful hunting techniques, it regulates the populations of other species, thus maintaining the ecological balance of its fragile and threatened home.

WASHU CHOCOLATE is part of a conservation strategy in one of the biodiversity hotspots on the Ecuadorian Coast, supporting activities that seek to protect endangered species.
