Description
TASTING NOTES
A sweet and milky 48% Peruvian bar, it has a creamy mouthfeel and a light toffee sweetness.
ABOUT THE MAKER
You may have seen renowned chef, restauranteur, and pastry maker Jordi Roca on his own episode of Netflix’s The Chef’s Table. A trailblazing culinary figure, he discovered the magic of cocoa on a visit to the Awajún native community in Peru. He saw their under-appreciated dedication to the craft of cocoa farming, and determined to make bars that – as with wine – resemble the people who create them. He partnered with chocolatier Damian Allsop, and together they have successfully launched a boutique hotel and café in their hometown of Girona.
THE BEANS
The beans in this bar were sourced from the Awajun native communities of the Amazon rainforest in eastern Peru. They underwent a four-day fermentation in wooden crates in the village of Utt, before being dried and exported to Europe.
