Tribute to Peruvian cocoa
Recipes specially designed by Ricard Martínez to create a unique pairing experience with the base cocoa. Thus, through the combination of different ingredients we seek to highlight, by similarity or contrast, the indigenous flavors of each cocoa of origin and its particular terroir .
Alto Piura Valley, Peru
Located in the coastal desert of northern Peru, Piura is one of the twenty-four departments of the country, covering both coastal and mountain areas in its territory. Known as the region of "eternal summer", the region is usually related to the sea, the sun and the beach, although it also has majestic mountainous areas, linked to the Peruvian Andean tradition.
Precisely, in these mountainous areas where the equatorial dry forest and the Peruvian desert combine, the province of Morropón and the San Juan de Bigote basin are located. This beautiful region stands out for its cultural richness (tondero, ceramics, cumanana, etc.) and for its high quality cocoa, the result of the combination between the tropical, dry and warm climate typical of Piura, and the mists of the Alto Piura, which moderate and stimulate the vegetation of the area.
However, this rural and Andean area of Piura faces important challenges such as the instability of its soils due to indiscriminate deforestation, which causes important contrasts between desert lands and leafy areas.
