I've often asked people about the attempts to plant Arriba outside of Ecuador. Some people say it can't be done. Not that the trees won't grow, but that they have failed in that the flavor profile is not the same. Speaking with a company rep at th...

Thanks and by the way, chocolate alchemy is a great source but they don't have half as many varieties as what I offer and John's prices are much higher. However, it is a great source of info.

Thanks again

I have 2 lines of bars. There are 9 bars in the Escazu line, which have various flavors, and are 3.5 oz. The Ocumare bar that you have is one that I make from the bean under the EZCA line. Currently I am only selling those bars online, in my shop, and at Fog City News in San Francisco. How did you come across the bar? I hope that you enjoyed it.

I don't recall if I offered to send you my Excel sheet of bars I've collected. If you want it, then perhaps you can point out some that I've overlooked? Just need your email - jay @ diecast.org.
