In 2009, Valrhona created Andoa Dark to enrich our Single Origin* chocolates’ aromatic range with an intensely bitter dark couverture. Its name is a tribute to a now-extinct native Peruvian dialect which was spoken in the Loreto region of the Peruvian Amazon.
Andoa is made from cocoa beans carefully selected by Valrhona’s experts and their local partners in Peru. This Single Origin* chocolate, from the Piura, San Martín and Amazonas regions, is made exclusively from the best organic ingredients, which is just one example of the ways Valrhona is committing to sustainable development.
Its *cocoa beans are sourced from the Piura, San Martín and Amazonas regions (Peru).
Andoa Dark's nutty notes conjure up Peru’s warm, fragrant air, while its hints of woodiness and bitter edge seem to melt into the tranquil twilight atmosphere.
