Saigon Signature

Produced by Alluvia, the Saigon Signature bar represents a regional focus on the Mekong Delta of Vietnam. This bean-to-bar maker operates near the source of its raw materials, allowing for close control over the initial stages of post-harvest processing. By maintaining a documented fermentation and drying protocol, the producer ensures consistency in the beans harvested from this tropical river delta.

This 70% cacao dark chocolate is refined using a melanger, a process that breaks down the particles to create a smoother texture. The inclusion of coconut powder directly influences the flavor profile, adding a distinct coconut note that distinguishes this bar from traditional, single-origin dark chocolates. The ingredient list remains straightforward, consisting of cacao nibs, cacao butter, sugar, and coconut powder.

The production approach emphasizes the geography of the Mekong Delta, utilizing local ingredients to shape the identity of the finished product. Each bar is portioned at a net weight of 80 grams, reflecting the standard size for this specific expression of Vietnamese cacao.
