Marana Cusco Dark 100%
No sugar, no softening. Just Chuncho cacao from the Quillabamba valley, doing all the work.
By Igor
A 100% bar contains one thing: cacao. No sugar to smooth the edges, no added sweetness to catch you if the flavour turns sharp. What you taste is entirely the bean, the fermentation, the roast. Maraná builds this bar from Chuncho, a native Cusco variety grown in the fertile valleys of Quillabamba, and the result leans nutty rather than bitter. That matters, because bitter is what most people expect and nutty is what stops them in their tracks. Three members have scored it so far, which makes every note in the archive count more than usual. If you have been curious about 100% chocolate but assumed it would punish you, this is a reasonable place to start that conversation with yourself.
