2021 Academy of Chocolate Awards GOLD Winner

Academy of Chocolate GOLD Award, 2019

Hacienda Azul is a small farm located in the rural town of Turrialba in the province of Cartago a couple hours east of Costa Rica’s capital, San Jose. It is managed by the Zeuner family and employs 8 people full time. The famed CATIE university of agriculture is also located here and has provided 5 different clones to the farm. The beans are washed prior to drying and we’ve found this cacao fascinating by its versatility.
