ORIADO 60 % HISTORY

Valrhona is passionate about constantly improving its Assemblages d’Exception aromatic range, which is why it has created a dark couverture chocolate that stands out for its light, balanced flavor. But Oriado is an innovation in another sense too. For the first time, Valrhona is revealing the origins of one of its Grand Cru blends as a way of visibly committing to quality and traceability in the cocoa industry. Oriado is made exclusively from the best organic and fair trade ingredients (Fairtrade/Max Havelaar and Agriculture Biologique certified). It is a testament to the lasting relationships between Valrhona and local producers.

ORIADO 60 % BLEND

The cocoa used to make Oriado is a blend of exceptional beans from two origins: the Dominican Republic and Peru. The former is world renowned for its fertile soil nourished by regular rains and frequent sunshine, whereas the cacao trees from the Piura region of Peru develop in a dry tropical area (even though they generally need a very humid climate). This “cocoa oasis” grows in the middle of a dry environment thanks to an extraordinary system of irrigation channels.

ANDOA 39% HISTORY

Andoa Lactée completes Valrhona’s range of milk chocolates by offering a new sensory experience. It does this thanks to the unique and instantly recognizable aromatics of fresh dairy milk. Andoa is a now-extinct native Peruvian dialect once spoken in the Loreto region of the Peruvian Amazon.

ANDOA 39 % ORIGINS

Andoa Lactée is made from cocoa beans which have been carefully selected by our experts and their local partners. This single origin Grand Cru chocolate is made exclusively from the best organic and fair trade ingredients (all of them Max Havelaar and NOP certified). This is one example of the ways Valrhona is committing to sustainable development.
