LetterPress Patanemo Venezuela 70%

$12.00

Originally founded by runaway slaves, the village of Patanemo in Venezuela is derived from "paz tenemos" which means "we have peace." The trees grow at high elevations on a steep incline, unusual for cacao which normally grows in the dense canopy in valleys. Patanemo particularly stands out for its complex yet familiar chocolatey flavor. Exported by Tisano Cacao, whose dedication to quality and the farmers is as strong as ours.

Maker Information

Based in Los Angeles, California, LetterPress Chocolate was founded by high school friends David and Corey. Their journey into cacao began during a vacation to St. Lucia in 2011 when they tasted cacao pulp for the first time. In 2013, they started a chocolate blog called "Little Brown Squares" and began making their own chocolate. Their passion grew, leading to the opening of a factory with tours. LetterPress sources the world's best cacao, roasts each batch carefully, and stone grinds over several days to highlight the unique flavors of each origin they use.
