The Rainforest Chocolate Tour is a one day tour to visit a small scale cocoa plantation in middle of a rain forest here you will get to see the basics of cocoa production in the way local handcrafters do it; from planting to harvesting, drying, fermenting, roasting, grinding and finally compacting pure raw first grade quality “criollo” variety of chocolate, unsweetened and ready to be used in the best cooking recipes. |
