This one-ingredient chocolate bar is made with cacao from the Zorzal Reserve, the first private reserve in the Dominican Republic, created to conserve the wintering habitat of the Bicknell's Thrush - a migratory endangered songbird from New England.
Tasting notes of this chocolate are red fruits and black tea.
60g Cacao Origin
Reserva Privada Zorzal is situated in the Duarte province, in the very heart of the Dominican Republic’s cacao-producing zone. Zorzal Cacao has a long term partnership with the owners of Reserva Privada Zorzal to provide economically meaningful and ecosystem strengthening activities, including the planting of diverse tree species. The owners of Reserva Privada Zorzal, some of whom are also investors in Zorzal Cacao, have set aside 70% of this reserve be ‘forever wild’. Given the scarcity of public funds for financing conservation, we’re demonstrating how the private sector can become partners in sustainable cocoa production, and habitat protection for birds and other wildlife. Reserva Privada Zorzal is honoured to be the Dominican Republic’s first private reserve establishing a model for private landowners to participate in the landscape-level conservation. On the reserve, we’re demonstrating to the world that we can grow cacao and safeguard biodiversity.
