First to import cacao from the Comalapa farm to Europe
Discover the cocoa of Luis Barrientos, owner of the Comalapa farm in El Salvador. In 2022, we were the first to import cacoa from the Comalapa farm to Europe.
Since then, some of Europe's finest chocolate makers have been using Hacienda Comalapa cocoa and have had the chance to visit the plantation.
The trip brought producers and artisans closer together, and they were able to see for themselves the reasons why this cocoa is so high quality.

A few words about Luis Barrientos
Luis Barrientos is a respected cacao producer in the region, thanks to his farm, his virtuous farming practices and the high-quality team that has surrounded him since he planted his first cacaoes in the early 2010s. For example, Jonás, who is responsible for post-harvest practices, has become an expert. He is called on by cocoa farmers in the surrounding area who want to improve their fermentation practices.
One of Luis Barrientos' major projects for 2022 was the construction of a warehouse that would provide ideal storage conditions and guarantee the preservation of the cocoa before its final quality control and export. The drying and fermentation areas have also been enlarged and renovated.
