TASTING NOTES
A complex Ecuadorian bar with a delicate profile of tropical flowers. Lovely floral notes are mixed with rainforest fruits and hints of almonds, with a subtly vegetal finish to round off.
ABOUT THE MAKER
Deanna Tilston launched Tosier in Suffolk in 2017 as part of her personal journey to learn about and craft great-quality chocolate. This endeavour has turned into an award-winning chocolate maker dedicated to giving farmers a fair price as part of a transparent and traceable supply chain. Tosier’s chocolate is made in twenty-four-kilogram batches, allowing Deanna to keep a close eye on each step of the chocolate-making process. It also means that no batch of chocolate Deanna makes will ever be quite the same; each batch and harvest that Tosier receives has different characteristics. We think this variety is part of the beauty of craft chocolate.
THE BEANS
The beans in this bar are the world-famous Arriba Nacional beans, grown on the Cedeño Aguilar family farm. This farm, known as “Garyth” after the initials of the family – Gabriel, Alberto, Ricardo, Yolanda, and Thomas – used to grow palm oil, but in 2005 switched to organic fine-flavour cocoa beans out of a desire to protect and expand Ecuador’s fine flavour heritage.
