Confluence Series
Vibrant, sophisticated, and beautifully balanced, the Crimson Dark bar is a sensory masterpiece designed for the adventurous palate. We infuse organic cranberry powder directly into our smooth Camino Verde 70% dark chocolate bar, integrating a sharp, electric fruit notes into every single bite. The deep canvas of the dark chocolate takes on a subtle, beautiful red hue, offering a tasting experience that is as visually stunning as it is delicious.
Tasting Notes
We specifically selected the renowned Camino Verde origin from Ecuador for this bar. Celebrated for its deep, classic chocolate profile, this bean naturally delivers heavy, brownie-like fudgy flavors and a rich, velvety texture. This robust, comforting base acts as the perfect counterweight—absorbing the intense tartness of the cranberry powder and transforming it into a smooth, refreshing, and bright finish.
Roasting Profile
We apply a gentle, low-and-slow roasting profile. This precise heat control curbs aggressive volatile acids, perfectly drawing out Camino Verde’s signature notes of deep fudge and toasted almond.

CAMINO VERDE | ECUADOR
About Camino Verde Ecuador
The Origin
Nestled in the lush Guayas region near Guayaquil, Ecuador, Camino Verde represents the cutting edge of modern cacao production. Founded and led by microbiologist Vicente Norero, the estate operates as a centralized fermentary that bridges the gap between traditional Ecuadorian farming and advanced fermentation science. Norero’s background allows him to treat the post-harvest process like a laboratory, fine-tuning fermentation to unlock precise, consistent notes of rich fudge, toasted almond, and delicate florals.
Our Partnership
At Clear Water Cocoa Company, we value transparency and technical excellence. Sourcing these exceptional Neo-Nacional beans allows us to bring Ecuador’s heritage straight to the Chippewa Valley. Through careful small-batch roasting, we honor Camino Verde’s innovation, ensuring every bar reflects sustainability and uncompromising quality.
