ECUADOR CACAO NIBS VINCES COLLECTION CENTER

POWERFUL / PURE CACAO

Our fine flavor cacao Nibs, have been collected no more than 100 km away from our Collection Center located in Vinces, province of Los Rios - Ecuador. Cacao Nibs are ideal as raw material for bean to bar projects, for decoration, and for culinary, pastry, and chocolate making use. Cacao Nibs from Vinces have an intense flavor with a bitter cocoa profile with toasted notes and a very slight acidity.

VINCES

We have started another one of our projects in Vinces-Ecuador, known as "the birthplace of cacao", a national and historical reference for its cacao production. We are constantly seeking new ways to dynamically improve the economy of the area, this is why our collection center has been developed in this specific location, in order to develop sustainable fine cacao aroma at its source. The space will also serve as a agricultural experimentation center, working in developing alternatives and technologies that will allow local farmers to become more self-sufficient, resilient and proactive about issues that concern their particular territory.

With the support of the community, a nursery will be co-designed and implemented for reproducing native, companion and patrimonial plants, aiming to foment the local ecosystem’s biodiversity. Also, a wetland bio-filter will be installed, for treating gray & black water through educative biological decomposition processes. These are a few of our environmental proposals that we are forging for the long run, demonstrating our commitment to adapt sustainable development goals in Ecuador’s cacao-rural sector.
