Kuná’s Bean-to-Bar 100% Ecuadorian Chocolate: A Blend of Quality, Social Responsibility, and Biodiversity

Founded in 2012 by Maria Fernanda Andrade and Luis Manuel Leon, Kuná has emerged as one of the finest chocolate brands from Ecuador. This chocolate brand stands out for its unique blend of social responsibility, cooperation with indigenous peoples, attention to biodiversity, organic farming, and quality.

Maria and Luis are known for their enthusiasm, passion, and commitment to quality, which has helped Kuná win numerous awards, including the main prize at El Salon del Cacao y Chocolate Ecuatoriano in its very first year of existence.

Kuná’s chocolate is made using high-quality cocoa harvested by the indigenous Kichwa peoples from Archidona in the Amazon of Ecuador. The Kichwa cultivate cocoa of exceptional quality from the Amazonian jungle, some of which are grown in the UNESCO biosphere Sumaco. In addition, Kuná sources beans from the Unión de Asociaciones Artesanales Eloy Alfaro de Esmeraldas to produce chocolate with higher cocoa percentages.

Kuná’s history is closely tied to the Asociación Wiñak, a cooperative founded by the Kichwa peoples. By choosing Kuná’s bean-to-bar 100% Ecuadorian chocolate, you can enjoy the delectable taste of Ecuadorian cocoa while supporting social responsibility, environmental sustainability, and fair trade practices.
