TASTING NOTES
Round creamy milk chocolate with a crunch of Norwegian goat cheese from Undredal Stølsysteri & Nordic salt from North Sea Salt Works
ABOUT THE MAKER
Fjak crafts its small-batch chocolate in the depths of Hardangerfjord in Norway. Agur and Siv started making chocolate in 2015, but it was only in 2017 – after much experimenting and fine-tuning their processes – that they launched to immediate success. They’ve swept the board since then, picking up awards galore with their unique Nordic-inspired flavour combinations and exquisite single-origin dark and milk bars.
THE BEANS
The cocoa for this bar was sourced from Produits des Iles SA (PISA), a central fermentery established in northern Haiti in 2012. PISA works with 1,104 small-scale farmers – 492 of whom are women – to pay premium prices for the unprocessed cocoa harvest and then processing it centrally, allowing farmers to earn more money for their quality beans.

If you love salted caramel, or those desserts with a touch of miso, you will love this.
As it melts the salty cheesy crystals become rough on your tongue, but in an interesting way. I’m looking forward to having some later with a glass of sherry!

I’ve had some amazing bars from Cocoa Runners, but this is on another level. Don’t buy it, I want it all.

Cor this is lovely! The chocolate is smooth and creamy and then you get the fudgey, slightly salty cheese notes. Love it.
