First Place winner in the national competition COEX Nicaragua 2019
It has the smoothness of a red wine with an intense floral bouquet from the first moment; this cocoa combines sweet fruitiness of melon and peach with the acidity of apple cider. The salty notes at the finish are nicely mixed with alcoholic notes of aromatic herbal genever.
SJM stands for San Juan de las Mulas, a community in Matiguás, Nicaragua. Farmers in the area are recognized for their high-quality cacao, which has been awarded the "Cacao de Excelencia" award.
