Diego Badar, the fifth generation of a grower family whose ancestors figure largely in the writings of famous Brazilian author Jorge Amado, has produced on this 150ha plantation an astonishing forastero cocoa variety called "parasinho".This chocolate has very expressive notes that evoke wood, autumn scents and the local pitanga fruit.
