Raaka – Earl Grey infused, Uganda, 70% Dark

About the bar

Raaka have used the classically chocolatey characteristics of Semuliki cocoa beans grown in Uganda by the Latitude Trade Co, to balance perfectly with the fragrant, bergamot and black tea notes from their Earl Grey infusion. Our resident Earl Grey drinker in the team is a huge fan of this bar – so if you enjoy it in tea form, there’s a good chance this bar will be a hit!

About the maker

Raaka is a Brooklyn-based craft chocolate maker that focuses on social responsibility as much as great taste. Founder Ryan Cheney discovered chocolate while on holiday in Thailand, and quickly grew excited about the possible flavours of unroasted cocoa beans. Raaka is now dedicated to making “uncommonly delicious chocolate” crafted from unroasted cacao beans, capturing the brighter, bolder, and fruitier notes of cacao. Raaka is also committed to transparent trade, publishing farmgate prices for all the cocoa that goes into each bar.

About the beans

The beans in this bar were sourced from Bundibugyo, a district of western Uganda that borders the Semuliki National Park. Renowned for its cocoa production, the district also neighbours the Rwenzori Mountains, a diverse ecosystem that is legendary for holding the source of the Nile River.
