Dick Taylor – Akessons, Madagascar, Brown Butter with Sea Salt and Nibs 73%

TASTING NOTES

This chocolate bar is as tasty as it is beautiful. The richness of the Madagascan cocoa combined with browned butter from local Rumiano Family creamery creates an ultra creamy foundation for crunchy roasted cacao nibs and delicate sea salt.

ABOUT THE MAKER

Seeking to “reinvent the chocolate experience” by showcasing the subtle nuances in flavour that can be captured from the finest cacao across the world, today Adam and Dustin operate out of their small factory in Eureka, California where they pride themselves on a simplicity of ingredients and a long and meticulous production process. As an added bonus, this bar might just be the prettiest bar you’ll ever eat, the delicate moulding reflecting an artistry and craftsmanship that harks back to Adam and Dustin’s noble former profession of boat building. In fact, craft was a guiding principle, in addition to a love of tactile endeavours, in leading them in 2010 to join the craft chocolate revolution that was gaining momentum.

THE BEANS

The beans in this bar are sourced from Bertil Akesson’s estate in Madagascar. Bertil’s beans are famous throughout the craft chocolate world, having produced countless award-winning bars and winning many awards themselves. They typically lend their bars a fruity flavour profile, and it’s an endless source of enjoyment for us to see all the new ways makers find to bring out their very best.
