Andoa Lactée completes Valrhona’s range of milk chocolates by offering a new sensory experience. It does this thanks to the unique and instantly recognizable aromatics of fresh dairy milk. Andoa is a now-extinct native Peruvian dialect once spoken in the Loreto region of the Peruvian Amazon.
Andoa Lactée 39% is made from cocoa beans which have been carefully selected by our experts and their local partners. This Single Origin* Grand Cru, with its *cocoa beans sourced from the Piura, San Martín and Amazonas regions, is made exclusively from the best organic ingredients (all of them Max Havelaar and NOP certified). This is one example of the ways Valrhona is committing to sustainable development.
The intense farm-fresh milk notes make Andoa Lactée unique! Its intensity varies depending; on when the organic milk was farmed.

SENSORY PROFILE
Andoa Lactée unfurls through warm, mellow notes of dairy milk, much like a pan pipe melody drifting over the foothills of the Andes.
