Our Story

Roots going back to 1883.

Gauss Export is more than a trading company. It is a family story shaped over generations by Dominican soil, seasonal discipline and a serious commitment to quality.

Working closely with agricultural authorities in the Dominican Republic, we manage our own production and export preparation with clear standards from field to shipment.

Our job is simple: make great origin products easier to buy, easier to verify and easier to move.

Cacao Processing

Sánchez & Hispaniola — processing, not variety.

In the Dominican Republic, cacao is traditionally distinguished by its post-harvest processing. Sánchez and Hispaniola are not botanical cacao varieties — they describe two different processing profiles of the same Dominican origin.

Sánchez Processing

Unfermented & sun-dried

Sánchez stands for unfermented, sun-dried cacao: bold, original and direct in profile. Our cacao nibs are currently produced exactly this way in our own facility in the Dominican Republic — ideal for further processing.

In current own production
Hispaniola Processing

Fermented & dried

Hispaniola stands for fermented and then dried cacao, with a rounder, more complex aroma. Available on request — ideal for premium and craft applications.

Available on request

Both profiles can come from the same bean, origin and variety. The difference lies mainly in post-harvest processing — not in the plant.
