GRENADA 65%
Grenada is an island belonging to the Antilles approximately 200 km north east of Venezuela. The island wedged between the Caribbean and the Atlantic boasts a population of 100’000 and an area of 344 km2, 8,697 being cacao farmers cultivating 2,360 hectares of land.
Planting of cacao “Grenada Selection”
“Grenada Selection” cacao is comprised of a choice of 16 original trees with Criollo and Trinitario heritage. These trees were carefully selected because of their intensive flavour and ability to adapt to the varying soil conditions found in Grenada.
This complex approach requires approximately six months to complete, before the trees are strong enough to be planted by the cacao farmers. The largest benefit derived from this practice is that the Grenada Cocoa Association can control the quality of cacao in Grenada by supplying the individual cacao farmers with the trees most suitable to their soil conditions.
Main harvest: December – April
