Hint of Full-bodied
Made from rare Venezuelan cocoa beans, ARAGUANI is strongly tannic with a long lasting finish. Its rich flavor profile features notes of currants, chestnuts and liquorice with hints of honey and freshly baked bread.
We chose Sur del Lago, a Venezuelan region known for being home to a rich soil that lends Araguani all its aromatic
complexity.
