Maraná Peruvian Dark Chocolate – Artisanal Piura 80% Cacao 70g

Maraná sources single-origin cacao from Piura, Peru's northern highlands, and crafts this 80% dark chocolate in small batches. The result is a bar with deep, complex notes—earthy undertones from the terroir, a subtle fruit finish, and the clean snap of properly tempered chocolate. This is dark chocolate for those who taste it, not those who merely eat it.

About this product

Each 70-gram bar is made without unnecessary additives, respecting both the bean and the craft.

How to enjoy

• Pair with black coffee or a bold red wine to amplify the cacao's complexity.
• Chop and fold into dark chocolate mousse or a flourless cake batter.

⭐ Why we love this

Maraná represents the Spanish tradition of honoring origin ingredients through minimal intervention—a philosophy that runs deep in Spanish gastronomy. This Peruvian cacao is treated with the same reverence Spanish artisans apply to jamón or sherry, allowing the terroir to speak without distraction.

🍷 Pairing suggestion

Pair with a glass of Spanish brandy (Cognac-style from Jerez) or a robust Rioja Reserva to echo the chocolate's earthy depth. For a lighter pairing, try with strong cortado coffee or alongside marcona almonds for a sophisticated Spanish-inspired tasting moment.

📍 From Spain

While the cacao originates from Piura's prized highlands in Peru, Maraná's artisanal craft reflects Spain's deep-rooted chocolate mastery, a legacy dating back centuries. Sourced and curated through El Corte Inglés, Spain's premier arbiter of global gourmet excellence, this bar brings world-class single-origin cacao to discerning Spanish palates.
