ABOUT THE REGION

These cacao beans originate from the Tireo farm, neighboring our world-renowned  farm Los Ancones. This farm is appreciated by a select group of chocolatiers by  virtue of the particularly wide genetic collection planted here, which included an 

extraordinary collection of elite varieties from all over the country. Tireo is part of  the Los Bejucos Denomination of Origin, an official denomination established since  2012.

“Known as the 1st CRU plantation chocolate.”

This farm is the genetic base for the development of other exclusive plantation  within the same Denomination of Origin. The non-profit Fuparoca foundation is  nurtured from Tireo, for the benefit of small Dominican cacao producers. With  

several Academy of Chocolate and International Chocolate Awards, the chocolate  represents the special attributes that contribute to this origin’s distinct personality.
