Description

TASTING NOTES

This 75% dark bar is a veritable firework of flavours, with a multi-layered fruity bouquet and notes of caramel and sweet spices.

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.

THE BEANS

The beans in this bar are grown in the Sambirano Valley on the northwest coast of Madagascar, where a humid micro-climate and rich volcanic soil makes it the perfect place for growing cocoa trees.
