TASTING NOTES

This bar has a fruity edge, combining citrus and juniper to create the illusion of the well loved combo; Gin and Tonic.

ABOUT THE MAKER

Paco Llopis, the founder of Utopick, lived his childhood above the kitchens of his family’s patisserie – the perfect setting for experimentation and inspiration. He soon turned his attention to chocolate, eventually becoming a master chocolatier in some of Europe’s most prestigious restaurants and chocolateries. Paco’s mission is to create the best and most surprising chocolates that have ever been. With his wife, designer Juana Rojas, he has created an extraordinary range of single-origin chocolate bars, all wrapped up beneath an exquisite origami boat reminiscent of the Spanish voyages that brought cacao to Europe in the sixteenth century.

THE BEANS

The Nugu Nicaragua is cacao sourced through Ingemann Fine Cocoa, who are one of the biggest fine flavour cacao exporters in Nicaragua. Ingemann specialises in working with small farmers and helping them to sell their fine flavour cacao.
