Both single varietals growing in the same region. The Senahú cocoa is a classic Guatemalan clone and it comes with a very mature sensory profile; cooked plums and cherries and peanut butter all cocooned in special floral and anise undernotes. It is produced in a single farm and it is carefully processed providing an exclusive offer.
The Dulce Rojo, cultivated along the river Rio Dulce, has a well-determined character once it is well processed; the intensity of juicy blond raisins mixed with the sweetness of fresh red fruit jam release exceptional fruitiness. The pecan nut flavour comes at the end to calibrate the fruit acidity and give a very long aftertaste alongside with soft lingering astringency.
SENAHU: caramel, quince jam, pear, sparkling wine, lychee, anise. DULCE ROJO: brownie, thyme, dried fruit, balsamic
SENAHU: cooked plums, cherries, peanut butter,floral, anise. DULCE ROJO: blond raisins, fresh red fruit jam, pecan nut.
