Baure - The High Five Company

Warm Weather Shipping

We continue shipping throughout the summer!

If the temperature reaches 24ºC, we ship all orders in special insulation packaging with ice-gel-packs. These survive temperatures up to 35 degrees for about 3 days. At no extra cost!

Before shipping we check the weather forecast at our location, the destination, and locations along the route (if known).

We make sure that the parcels are collected by the carrier as late as possible in the afternoon.

In case of warm weather we ship out from Monday-Wednesday depending on the expected transit time. And in order to exclude risk of parcels being stored in a carrier's warehouse over the weekend.

EcoCoolBox: an environmentally friendly insulated packaging

The EcoCoolBox which we use for insulated shipping is a unique, completely paper-based and environmentally friendly insulated packaging with an equal or even better insulation performance than EPS (tempex / styrofoam) based solutions. The liners of the boxes are made of fine paper fibres. These fibres have outstanding isulation characteristics, comply to European directives for contact with food products, are 100% recycable, and are made of clean recycled cardboard.

What you can do yourself

Please insure that the delivery address will not result in the package sitting outdoors for any length of time. The High Five Company is not liable for theft or damage during shipping or upon delivery. We highly suggest shipping where you can receive the package immediately. The High Five Company is not responsible for incorrect shipping addresses or addresses where delivery results in a package remaining in a hot, rainy, or otherwise unsuitable environment.

When we pause shipping

We pause shipping orders if the ambient temperature is over 35ºC in our and/or your location, in which case will delay such orders. But it is your responsibility to order chocolate to be received at under 35ºC. The High Five Company will not refund or replace melted chocolate. Please note this before ordering! You may request a delay in your shipment until the ambient temperature is below 35ºC at your location by adding a note to your order.

BAURE, Bolivia

When Marcela Baldivieso and David Vacaflores visited the Bolivian side of the Amazon Rainforest in 2000, what was meant to be a relaxing holiday turned into a life changing experience. Marcela and David were captivated by the natural richness of the rainforest, and in particular the abundance of wild cacao. In 2001 they set up Chocolate Baure - initially creating rustic and traditional chocolate using homemade machinery, before upgrading to a more sophisticated bean-to-bar operation in 2009. Today, they make arguably the finest chocolate in Bolivia.

Key Characteristics

All of Chocolate Baure’s bars are made with 100% wild-grown cacao from the Beniano region of eastern Bolivia. This is some of the rarest single origin chocolate in the world.
The company supports up to 1000 Amazonian native families and boosts socio-economic development in the region.
Harvesting wild cacao adds value to the natural rainforest habitat and protects biodiversity. Wild cacao collection is more in harmony with the environment than traditional agriculture.

Chocolate Baure creates many jobs and organises workshops, hiring international experts to train local people in cacao processing techniques.
All Chocolate Baure bars are 100% certified organic, vegan and gluten free.
The chocolate has an exceptional and unique flavour profile from the wild Beniano cacao, which tested 98% pure (almost entirely unique genetics - only 2% crossover with any other cacao variety).
