Friis Holm – O’Payo, Nicaragua Milk 50%

About the bar

This bar is a creamy, fragrant and fruity milk chocolate.

About the maker

Mikkel Friis-Holm’s craft chocolate journey started with an ever-growing passion for fine chocolate. This eventually led him to Central America, where he immersed himself in a project that aimed to identify and evaluate DNA strands of Nicaraguan cocoa beans. He then pivoted from sourcing to making, and Friis Holm, the Danish craft chocolate maker, was born. Mikkel is still fascinated with genetics, and ensures he chooses the best varieties with the highest flavour potential.

The beans

This milk chocolate bar has been crafted using a blend of Nicaraguan beans from a co-operative in Waslala, in the nature reserve in the mountains of northeastern Nicaragua.

This bar was featured in our February 2021 subscription box. You can see what Spencer and Mika had to say about it in the video below:
