This new couverture from Valrhona belongs to the Grand Cru de Terroir, ie only cocoa beans from a certain region are used. In this case, it is Ecuador. In the midst of a golden triangle that forms the villages of Vinces, Quevedo and Babaoio, there are some very old plantations where the traditional, native cocoa variety Nacional is grown - better known as Arriba cocoa. Alpaco is a chocolate that combines power and subtlety: the fine floral aromas (jasmine, orange blossoms) wrapped in very strong chocolate notes give it a dignified power.
