ABOUT: This single-origin dark chocolate uses premium Criollo beans: rare, valuable, and precious delicacies. The beans are local to specific origins of the world, each with distinct flavor profiles created by the climate, soil, and trees of the regions in which they grow. The strong cocoa notes and intense chocolate flavor have low acidity without the astringency that most people are accustomed to with extra dark chocolate. Each is exceptionally well balanced, rare for high cocoa content chocolate because it contains acids and volatiles within the bean that can put forth a bitter taste.
