Mashpi 70% dark with nibs chocolate bar

Made by Mashpi Chocolate in Quito, Ecuador

“This bar is the ultimate perfection between chocolate that melts in your mouth and crunch. Our nibs pieces in this bar make it perfect because when you bite into it, the nibs release all the aromas of the forest, while the chocolate part of it melts slowly in your mouth.”

Mashpi’s Story:

Mashpi is the name of a river, a valley and the community we are part of. We are a family project with the participation of neighbors in the community.

More than a decade ago we started a forest conservation and restoration project. In the search to generate a healthy and sustainable environment in the Chocó bioregion, we decided to create regenerative systems of organic agriculture and similar forestry, rescuing the national fine aroma cocoa, one of the best cocoa in the world.

WHAT WE STAND FOR

We carry out our daily activities following the rhythms of nature. We are studying and trying to restore the natural cycles of soil, water and environment. We believe that Permaculture provides tools that allow us to transform society towards a more just way of living among humans and other beings that inhabit this planet.”
