About the bar
The dark chocolate slowly melts in the mouth with a gentle butteryness. The bar has indulgent aromas and biting into it we were reminded of chocolate brownie with hint of honey. A stronger, roasted flavour came through at the end.
If you’re looking to explore texture, you can compare the smooth texture of this bar to Oialla’s almost identical Beniano Bolivia Dark 70% Chocolate with Nibs.
About the maker
Oialla is the creation of chef and restaurateur Rasmus Bo Bojesen. After years heading up the kitchen teams in some of Copenhagen’s finest restaurants, Rasmus was inspired to start making bars by his wife’s lifelong love of chocolate. All Oialla’s chocolate bars are crafted from Bolivian ‘wild’ cacao beans, grown in the rainforests of the Beni province. Oialla works with local growers who harvest, dry and ferment the beans before shipping them to Denmark to be crafted into chocolate.
The beans
This “Beni” bar is named after the Rio Bení, where the cacao flourishes along the river Beni. The locals call the cacao ‘Beniano’.

I am new to tasting, this was my first bar I tasted. Very smooth and creamy, with quite a bitter, but nice tang to it. Very rich, a number of flavours coming through.
