Ranked in the Top 100 Chocolates in the World.
Origin & Craftsmanship
Cuzco 80% is made by Cacaosuyo using the rare, native Chuncho cacao beans from the Urubamba Valley in the lower Cuzco region of the Peruvian Andes, near Machu Picchu. This area is known for housing many native cocoa varieties, which Cacaosuyo helps preserve through direct trade practices and careful attention to the entire "tree-to-bar" process. The bar is minimally processed at origin in Peru to express the unique genetics of this heirloom cocoa strain.
Flavor Profile
Despite its high cocoa content, this bar is known for being naturally sweeter and less bitter or astringent than most 80% chocolates. Tasting notes start with a slight fruitiness, including hints of red fruit or citrus, which then slowly fades into a lingering fresh, herbal finish. Other reviewers have noted hints of pineapple, hay, and a unique "buttery melty texture".
Tasting & Pairing Guide
Let a small square melt on your tongue to appreciate its subtle complexity. Note the initial sweet fruity notes as they fade into the unique, long-lasting herbal finish.
- Complementary Pairings: Try pairing with fortified wines like sherry or vermouth, or other dessert wines such as Madeira or Port.
- Contrast Pairings: Pair with barrel-aged spirits like whiskey or rum.
Summary
Cuzco 80% is an award-winning (World Gold at the International Chocolate Awards 2020-2021) and highly refined bar that showcases the unique potential of Peru's native Chuncho cacao . Its mild fruit and distinct lingering herbal notes make it a unique and complex experience, ideal for dark chocolate lovers seeking depth and a surprisingly sweet character in a high-cocoa bar.

Simple gold colored hoops
Color: Yellow Gold, Color: Yellow Gold
I love the color of these hoops. They are a nice light gold color that is not too yellowy, and not brassy. The three hoop designs in this set are simple but pretty. I love the braided hoop, it is my favorite of the three. The largest hoop has tiny cubic zirconia stones set into the hoop. Nice idea, but they are so miniscule that you don't get any sparkle effect, and they just basically give the hoop a little more texture.
Some of them take a little more fidgeting to close properly, but the hinges on all of the pairs open and close well and seem nice and solid. They don't cause any irritation to my ears.
They come in separate cellophane bags inside an unbranded dark grey jewelry bag. I'm happy with these earrings.

Lots of variety
Color: Yellow Gold
This set of earrings are a nice set of varying sizes of hoops. Each set has a different pattern and diameter. They are are posts that the hoops hook onto so there's no backing to loose and they self lock. I find this style much easier to put on than the huggie style earrings. This is a great value and you can give this as a gift of three pairs or split up the pairs and give them as separate gifts. They come in plastic bags with no gift box.

Dainty and well-made
Color: Yellow Gold, Color: Yellow Gold
These are the perfect size for dainty stylish gold jewelry. Minimalist jewelry is really back in style and these earrings provide a great variety of options at an amazing price! I have a few pieces from Amazon essentials and I’ve been happy with every single one, they don’t turn green on my ears, and I have swam and bathed with them without any issues. I’ve had trouble with some hoops because the clasps wear out after a while, but these seem to be holding up very well. My favorite pair of the three is the chain one, it’s not the picture because I am wearing them!

Not for those with thicker earlobes
Color: Yellow Gold
This is a really cute set with perfectly sized hoops! They look so chic and can complement so many different outfits. The gold color is very nice and shiny. The only downside for me is that if you have thicker earlobes like I do these might not fit or feel very tight. Also the part that goes into your earlobe is not a regular size rod and gets thicker so if your piercing is tiny these might not be the most comfortable to wear.
