The combination of Trinchera cocoa, mandarin oranges and liquorice made us curious. First you notice the fine cocoa flavour of the Venezuelan cocoa, followed by the liquorice note and in the aftertaste the subtle fruity note of mandarins.
“Casa Cacao” is more than just a manufactory for exceptional chocolate – it is also a hotel and café. In Girona, near Barcelona, Jordi Roca and his team have been producing exquisite chocolates since 2018. Casa Cacao sources the cocoa directly from the producers and endeavours to reflect the full richness of a cocoa bean in its chocolates. “Each origin, each producer, each batch, each production shows one of the thousand faces that make up the life of cocoa: the soil in which it has grown, the climate that has determined its life, the producer’s work on the soil and on the plant, or the different processing after harvesting, especially during the fermentation and drying phases.”
