Maker Comments | Made from Amelondos, a variety transplanted from the upper Amazon region, this chocolate makes no pretense. The alluring aroma is of tropical plants. Strong cocoa forward flavors transition to hints of allspice, wood, and smoke and finish with a strong but crisp bitter aftertaste. Each vintage of Chocolatour is unique in its flavor profile. The overall flavor and the distinct flavor notes will continue to develop with time. Even with aging, this chocolate will always be intense. |
