Shattell – Tumbes Milk with Blueberries

Description

Unfortunately this bar is no longer available in our Library. Please see below for four bars that we think you will enjoy.

Made in Lima, Peru with cocoa beans from the Tumbes coastal area of North West Peru and blueberries from the Andes.

The bar has an earthy aroma as well as a natural sweetness from the milk. The slightly coarse, grainy texture becomes thick and fudgy with the addition of milk, and is interspersed with chewy blueberries. Hints of malt, with a yeasty edge give way to tropical fruits. Passion fruits, apricots and even a dash of yuzu all come through and blend with the sweet, well balanced acidity of the blueberries. The combination of theses two Peruvian exports works well here, creating a fruity but sweet bar as the sharper notes are mellowed by the milk.
