Krak Chocolate - Colombia Sierra Nevada - Milk Chocolate


All orders are shipped for € 6,95
The Sierra Nevada is a stunning mountain range in the northern part of Colombia, bordering the lovely beaches of the Caribbean coast and reaching 18,700 feet in height. Cacao de Colombia recently set up a top-notch fermentation and drying centre in the lower-lying community of Macondo, where they mainly source cocoa from about 10 farming families in the Magdalena department.
The technical skills of these farmers are top class: they even carry out their own pollination experiments to boost quality and yields, which are currently around 700 kg/ha in the area. Cacao de Colombia has been offering technical support and a steady market to farmers in the Sierra Nevada for the past 6 years, and the results are clear in both the quality of the cocoa and the positive impact on farmers. Farmers report a 72% higher annual income than before this new market came about.

Krak Chocolate is the venture of bean-to-bar chocolate maker Mark Schimmel. While most chocolatiers and confectioners use melted factory chocolate, Mark oversees the entire process himself.
By selecting cocoa beans from specific harvest years and origins, roasting and rolling the chocolate, he crafts unique flavours you won't find in shop-bought chocolate bars.
