Pure Chocolate Nicaragua, Medalla 71% 50g

Ingemann is a specialty cocoa company that provides fine cocoa beans produced in Nicaragua, utilizing a model focused entirely on quality, traceability, and sustainability. They purchase wet cocoa directly from a network of around 1,200 smallholder farmers, implementing strict sustainability programs at every step of the production chain.

These specific beans are Medalla, a unique micro-lot contributed by 30 farmers. You may have already noticed several Nicaraguan varieties in our assortment (we are a huge fan of Ingemann’s fine cocoa varieties!), such as from Nugu, Chuno, Rugoso, Tenor and now Medalla, they are all absolute favorites of ours!

After being hand-sorted at a central facility, the beans are fermented for approximately 7 days and then dried for another 7 days on average. Once dried, they are shipped to bean-to-bar makers and small-scale suppliers worldwide. The moment these beans arrive at our workshop, we determine a roast profile and let the magic begin!

We do hope you enjoy tasting this chocolate as much as we enjoyed making it.

INGREDIENTS: Cocoa beans (Nicaragua, Medalla), sugar, 1% cocoa butter (Ecuador).
