Maker Comments | The holy grail of chocolate - nothing added to get in the way of the real thing. Pure cocoa mass gently conched for an extraordinarily long time to achieve a satisfying mellowness. Made with organic beans from Gonzalo Martinetti's impeccably run plantation of nacional arriba cocoa trees in the Los Rios province of Ecuador. Immediately fills the mouth with extremely deep classic cocoa flavours. Dried fruit and herb flavours also present. A small pieces is long lasting in the mouth. Aromas of roasted nuts. |
