Origin & Craftsmanship
This refined bar belongs to Meybol Cacao’s Chuncho Collection — a series dedicated to showcasing rare, heirloom Chuncho cacao from Peru’s Amazon basin. Meybol sources these distinctive beans with a focus on genetic diversity and terroir expression, then applies careful bean-to-bar techniques (thoughtful fermentation, gentle roasting, and precise conching) to preserve the cacao’s natural aromatic character.

Flavor Profile
At 70% cacao, Chuncho Collection №5 offers a beautifully balanced, layered chocolate experience. It opens with floral and citrus brightness, transitioning into nuanced dark fruit and raspberry notes, and closes with a rounded cocoa richness that carries subtle earthiness and honey-like sweetness. The progression of flavors is elegant and expressive without harsh bitterness, letting each layer unfold gently on the palate.

Tasting & Pairing Guide

Let a square melt slowly on your tongue so the floral top notes bloom first. As it softens, allow the fruit and citrus mid-palate layers to evolve before settling into deep cocoa richness.
Pair this bar with a light, fruit-forward red wine like Pinot Noir or Beaujolais to complement its bright top notes. For a non-alcoholic match, a bergamot black tea or oolong tea works beautifully to highlight the floral and fruit complexities. For added texture, enjoy alongside toasted hazelnuts or dried tart cherries — both enhance the layered flavour experience from fruit brightness to cocoa depth.

Summary

The Chuncho Collection №5 70% bar from Meybol Cacao is a refined expression of rare Peruvian cacao, with vivid multi-layered character that evolves from floral and citrus high notes to deep cocoa richness. It’s ideal for chocolate lovers who appreciate nuanced, origin-driven flavour and a smooth, expressive finish.

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.

To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.

On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
