Arhuacos cacao is produced by around 80 indigenous smallholder farmers in the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta mountain range on the Caribbean coast in North Colombia. The cacao is grown under the canopy of the natural forest, together with food crops like corn, yucca, and fruit trees. After manual picking the farmers bring the wet cacao beans to a central fermentation unit. Fermentation is almost 7 days with 5 turns, after which the beans are dried on covered wooden decks until moisture levels are below 7%. After careful screening, picking and selecting, the beans are packed and transported to Cacao Huntersโ warehouse in Popayan.
