About the bar
Zotter is an Austrian bean to bar chocolate maker with a penchant for the wacky. But at the heart of the chocolate is where and how this chocolate maker sources its cacao – it is always directly from co-operatives and individual farmers.
For Zotter’s Labooko range, each bar comes in two, which makes them ideal for tasting, sharing, and exploring the differences between bean varieties, percentages and flavours.
The chocolate has been conched for 19 hours, which owes itself to its fragrant flavour and creamy mouthfeel. On taste this chocolate has delicate raisin and dried berries with a rich nutty flavour body and whipped cream finish.
About the maker
Josef Zotter is one of the long-established heroes of the craft chocolate movement. He has been producing chocolate since 1992, became famous for his wacky flavour combinations (scarlet runner bean and coriander pastry, anyone?), and was one of the earliest to produce 100% Organic and Fairtrade products. He has worked tirelessly to improve the lives of his growers around the world, engaging in numerous initiatives in Latin America, Africa, and Southeast Asia. He also runs an outstanding chocolate factory visitor experience – The Zotter Experience – that is a must-see for any chocolate-loving visitors to Austria.

What do other people who've discovered Zotter - Nicaragua Dark 70% have to say?
My husband (a confirmed milk chocolate only man) and myself both love this one. It truly does have a delicious creamy mouthfeel and aftertaste, with a generous light cocoa flavour. For it's price point (currently £3.95) it's a great find and one we'll be buying again and again. I think it would make the most wonderful hot chocolate but I haven't built up the courage yet to melt a whole bar to make it!
