Making a drink
  1. For a pure cacao drink, allow 20–30 g per cup, or 30–40 g for a denser texture. With a chocolate bar, adjust the amount to your taste: it already contains sugar.
  2. Grate or break up the cacao or chocolate.
  3. Heat the water, or a plant-based drink, without bringing it to the boil: 60 to 65 °C at most.
  4. Pour over the pieces, let them melt, then beat with a whisk or a molinillo until you get an even foam.

The terroir

In the Caribbean plains of southern Nicaragua, Nueva Guinea has a humid tropical climate, between 20 and 200 m. Nugu comes from eleven plots, whose harvests Ingemann brings together to ferment in wooden boxes.

Nugu

Une ville ouverte dans la forêt en 1965.

Territory

A town opened up in the forest in 1965

On 5 March 1965, an agricultural colony opens in the forest of Caribe Sur. Farming families from León, Chinandega, Carazo and Chontales receive land.

In 1971, the eruption of Cerro Negro drives other families from their crops. They move to Nueva Guinea. They come from the dry Pacific; here, they have to learn to farm in the rain.

The gesture

Eleven plots, a single micro-lot

Nugu brings together the harvests of eleven plots. Ingemann Fine Cocoa, which started out in beekeeping, has worked with cacao since 2013 and runs the fermentation according to a written protocol.

The beans arrive pale, still wrapped in their pulp. A jute cloth is folded down over the boxes. For several days, the beans turn brown beneath the cloth.

The place

Cacao arrives after the cattle

In Nueva Guinea, pasture has pushed east, right up to the edges of the Indio Maíz reserve, where the jaguar and Baird's tapir still live. Part of the reserve is administered by the Rama-Kriol territorial government.

Cacao came later to this landscape. It grows beneath the trees: the pod ripens at hand height, next to a banana plant from which the bunch and the flower hang.

Genetics

A trinitario acriollado

Nugu is a trinitario acriollado: a trinitario that has drifted towards criollo, finer, less tannic. The harvest runs from October to February. A lowland cacao that behaves like a highland one, which is not common.
