TASTING NOTES
Chocolate and blueberries, who knew would be such a perfect pair. With this flavoured 63% dark chocolate, the cacao and the blueberry flavours work together. Expect a bright sensation on the palate, yielding to a cooling melt and luscious chocolatey finish.
ABOUT THE MAKER
Standout Chocolate launched onto the craft chocolate scene as a one-man-band in 2018. Fredrik Martinsson, Standout’s founder, has a background in engineering and specialty coffee, and he uses that experience and skillset to craft his award-winning chocolate in Kållered, Sweden. He sources his cocoa beans directly from co-operatives and farmers all over the world, aiming to create “a better world, through social, environmental and economic sustainability for the farmers.”
THE BEANS
The beans for this bar are sourced from Öko Caribe, a prominent cocoa supplier in the Dominican Republic and one of the most popular in the world. The two owners, Adriano de Jesus Rodriguez and Gualberto Acebey Torrejon, maintain close relationships with their farmers, often giving out loans for family emergencies and community needs. They also educate their farmers about sustainable land management and environmental responsibility, and pay consistent premiums for the farmers’ award-winning cocoa.
Fredrik has combined these beans with hand-picked bilberries (otherwise known as European blueberries) from the northern parts of Sweden.
