Brand:Ruby Hue

Description

“This ultra-rare Piura Blanco bean is a unique combination of albino and Nacional genetic cacao varietals. Grown in the arid Piura Valley of north-west Peru, these white beans thrive against the odds. Despite the dry, sun-scorched climate, farmers have ingeniously harnessed Andean waterways to keep their cacao flourishing year after year.

We’ve given these beans a gentle medium roast to preserve their delicate fruitiness, while the addition of milk highlights the cacao’s natural malted depth. The result is a chocolate that balances light, golden sweetness with a satisfying richness.

Maker Ruby Hue

Brand

Ruby Hue

Ruby Hue is a bean-to-bar chocolate maker based in Bristol, founded by pastry chef Ru and mixologist Tom. The pair originally started Ruby Hue as a pop-up, but the challenges facing the hospitality industry during the Covid-19 pandemic led them to rethink the business. After discovering the world of craft chocolate, they began learning about bean-to-bar production and eventually started making their own chocolate.

Ru brings a background in Michelin-starred kitchens, including a role as Head Chef in the Royal Box at the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Association, as well as a place in the semi-finals of Channel 4's Bake Off: The Professionals. Tom's career as a mixologist has taken him around the world and developed his interest in flavour and terroir.

Today, Ruby Hue describes itself as Bristol's first fully bean-to-bar chocolate maker. The company works with fine cacao from a range of origins, including Peru, Uganda, Guatemala and Thailand, with an emphasis on ethically and sustainably sourced cacao.
