Cloudforest Chocolate is made by chocolate storyteller Sebastian Cisneros in Portland Oregon. With the Duo, you receive Valentina (maple/chocolate) & Orchid (vanilla/chocolate).

‘In the fall of 2009, we embarked upon a mission to tease out and understand the nuances of cacao and create unconventional chocolate flavor combinations. Our initial setup only allowed us to source already-processed chocolate from larger fine chocolate makers in Europe, combine it with our recipes, and reshape it into bars.

In 2014, we launched our first chocolate bar featuring single-estate Ecuadorian cacao, under the name Cloudforest. Unlike our previous releases, this bar marked the first time we took control of all processing steps from dry cacao beans to its final chocolate form. These steps included roasting the cacao beans, refining the roasted cacao with sugar, and conching (homogenizing and deacidifying) the chocolate to improve flavor and texture.
