Enrichd – Chuncho, Peru, Dark 70% with Reishi Mushroom

About the bar

This 70% dark raw bar has been combined with Reishi mushroom to create an earthy chocolate with a bitter umami flavour.

Please note: this 70% bar is one for lovers of bitterness – the Reishi extract is intensely bitter, and adds a significant flavour to the bar.

About the maker

ENRICHD was born in 2015, after the founder, Richard Enion, had an earth-shattering wake up call. After having a tumour removed, Rich was laying on his hospital bed in between operations when he realised that you have to take responsibility for your own health – which is why he became intensely fascinated by foods to support longevity. Rich participated in weeks of silent meditations, years of tea and mushroom ceremonies, and even living with Drs of traditional chinese medicine, before travelling back to England and starting ENRICHD.

ENRICHD’s bars are made by Jacques Cöp, founder and chief chocolate maker at Coco Caravan, who began making in Stroud, Gloucestershire in 2012. Their bars are dairy-free, gluten-free, organic, and use unrefined and low fructose sweeteners, like coconut sugar.

The beans

Under the shadows of the Apu Urusayhua, Mother of stone, grow the old and sturdy Chuncho trees, some of which are 200 years old. They grow at an altitude of 1.200m, which is highly unusual for cacao. Peruvian Chuncho in its authentic and pure form is hard to find, and even harder to source.
