Rio Sinu cacao is grown by the Integrasinu Foundation in northern Colombia. The foundation consists of nearly 200 smallholder farming families who cultivate a total of 432 hectares of cacao. In addition to cacao, bananas, rice and corn are also grown in Rio Sinu.

In a centrally located processing station, the cacao beans are separated by variety, fermented and dried.

Our partners at Disidente have put together an assemblage of different cacao varieties for laflor.

The beans then find their way to Europe on the sailing freighter “Tres Hombres”.

The main objective of the Integrasinu Foundation is to improve the living standards of the community through the cultivation of high quality cacao.

3x winner of the Colombian national award “Cacao de Oro” (Gold Cacao).
