Chocolate origins tour 

This tour is one of our treasures, since this reveals the mystery on the origin that relies on Ecuadorian chocolate.
The highest quality chocolate was born from a rainforest conservation project started in Ecuador in 2007. Through his nonprofit foundation Third Millennium Alliance. 
The chocolate this soil produces comes from the oldest trees which study traced genetics as far back as 5,300 years according to the serotonin found in pods from that age in one of the archeological researches; these kind of trees were thought extinct until the results from this study were revealed, proving their purity is at 100% Nacional.
