Naive – Jaguar Tree Cacao 70%

“Theobroma bocolor (Jaguar Tree cacao) is one of the rarest species of the genus Theobroma aside from the culturally significant Theobroma cacao (regular cacao). Some say only 1000 trees still exist hidenly growing in the wild tropical jungle. Since prehestoric times, Jaguar cacao has been used for food as well as ritual purposes so the challenge of experimenting with it always fascinated me. i have been able to build a very limited supply chain of these rarities but also gave it a little smoky and spicy twist with this signature recipe. To take things even further, I have immersed beans into the chocolate, made from white hairloom cacaooo seeds. Get some until it’s gone forever.”
