Zotter – Labooko Nicaragua 50%

About the bar

This creamy and fragrant milk has a higher cocoa content than most. We were struck by the strong chocolatey flavours of the Nicaraguan cacao, which are complimented by delicate fruit notes. A very well balanced dark milk bar with a good melt.

This bar was described by chocolate tester Georg Bernardini as ‘the world’s best milk chocolate’. We’re not ones to play favourites, and with so many incredible bars in our Chocolate Library how could we possibly choose. We do want to know what you think – is this accolade deserved or have you tasted a milk bar you think is better? Let us know your views in the comments below.
