Solstice – Wasatch Blend 70% Dark

Description

TASTING NOTES

This 70% dark chocolate is chocolate brownie like throughout. It resembles a milk chocolate with texture and flavour and is a bar we think milk chocolate lovers and dark chocolate lovers alike will enjoy!

ABOUT THE MAKER

Husband and wife Scott Query and DeAnn Wallin founded Solstice Chocolate in 2013, among the scenic vistas of Salt Lake City, Utah. Utah has recently been dubbed the craft chocolate capital of the States, and rightly so with its boom in makers and retailers of small-batch craft chocolate. Starting as a hobbyist before running Solstice as a business, DeAnn has always been fascinated by chocolate. Chocolate made its way into many of DeAnn’s family activities, from making chocolates as a child with her grandmother, to making chocolates as a mother with her daughters. Yet another example of chocolate finding wonderful ways to bring people together.

THE BEANS

This 70% dark chocolate bar is named after the Wasatch Mountains of Utah. It is a blend of three different cacao origins that Solstice source from. Blends, when done right, are quite magical in craft chocolate, albeit rare. Blends typically harmonise higher noted cacaos with lower noted cacaos, fulfilling and layering the complexity of flavour profiles.
