Zoque Dark Chocolate 88%

"KAKAW" FROM THE INVENTORS OF CHOCOLATE

The deep green ranges of Selva Zoque in Southern Mexico can be considered the birthplace of chocolate. For over 4000 years, people here have cultivated cacao. The ancient Zoque and their forefathers – the Olmecs – were minds as brilliant as the Greeks of Europe. They were stargazers and kept an advanced calendar; they invented the sauna and a ball game – and then they created a powerful sacred drink from a forest fruit they called “kakaw”. That was the birth of chocolate.
