Conexion – Ecuador, Virgin Roast 70% Dark with Cocoa Nibs

Description

TASTING NOTES

The beans for this bar, sourced from the famous Apovinces Cooperative in Los Rios, Ecuador, have been flash roasted in order to highlight their fantastic natural flavour profile. The lightly floral aroma and fruity flavours (look out for hints of green apple) are accentuated by the addition of cacao nibs, giving a great crunch and intense chocolatey hits.
