Krak Chocolate - Mexico Soconusco

In the early 1500s, the Spaniards set foot in Mexico and first saw the Aztecs and cocoa. Cocoa was so valuable to the Aztecs that it was even used as currency. The cocoa from the province of Chiapas was the first cocoa that the Spaniards brought to Europe. Today, the province of Chiapas and Tabasco still produces the most cocoa in Mexico. Chiapas and Tabasco account for 99% of Mexico's total cocoa production. Of the total production, 18,000 tons from Tabasco and 4,500 tons from Chiapas, only 100 tons are exported each year.
