You’ve heard about and perhaps experienced Swiss chocolate. Many people say it’s their favorite chocolate in the world, and it’s largely because chocolate crafted in Switzerland has a voluptuous, silky mouthfeel that creates pure pleasure as it melts on your taste buds.

Lovingly made with extremely rare beans, this 66% Beni Wild Bolivia Dark Chocolate Bar is rich and bright with notes of mandarin orange, floral honey, apricot, and a hint of jasmine tea. It’s absolutely lovely. 

The Beniano cacao beans grow wild in the Bolivian Amazonas alongside the river that bears the same name. These tiny beans, (approximately half the weight of typical cacao beans), naturally possess a fruity and floral aroma. 

Due to their small size, the beans fit neither the normal industry standards nor the machines, and as the Original Beans chocolate maker says, they are delicate and delicious like wild strawberries. We have a tasty misfit on our hands!

The Beni is an archipelago comprised of 40 forest islands called “chocolatales” or “chocolate islands.” For centuries, indigenous people have accessed the cacao trees by boat in order to harvest the precious beans. The last 400 blue-throated macaws are perched among the treetops of this lush archipelago. 

By purchasing the Wild Beni Dark Chocolate Bar, you are helping to preserve this wild cacao wonderland and all of its inhabitants.
