Meybol Cacao

90% Solo cocoa fine chocolate from original cocoa Chuncho

The cocoa for this 90% chocolate comes from the Vraem region of Peru. Located in the south of the country, this region is the largest coca growing area in the country and is very poor. More and more valuable, old cacao trees are being felled and with them large parts of the rainforest. In addition, many animals are losing their habitat. Therefore, Meybol wants to offer an alternative to the farmers and encourage them to grow cocoa and provide them with a good income to improve their livelihood.It cooperates with the cocoa farmers in the Vraem region. In 2021, they planted 50,000 cocoa trees of the rare Chuncho variety in the project and gave the cocoa farmers a purchase guarantee. They pay double the local price to value their work. In this way, the rare Chuncho cacao, also called primitive cacao, is preserved and the rainforest is protected.

The chocolate is:

• glutenfree
• vegan
• directly traded
• produced without child labor
• lactose free
• Tree to bar
• sustainable cocoa production
• socially just produced
