A 73% dark chocolate bar from French bean-to-bar maker Barre Clandestine, crafted using organic cacao from the Maya Mountain region in Belize.
Barre Clandestine is a French bean-to-bar producer operating as a dedicated manufacture of chocolate. The team oversees the entire production process to maintain transparency from the raw bean to the finished bar. This focus on craftsmanship ensures that the identity of the origin is preserved throughout the transformation of the cacao.
The Maya Mountain 73% bar highlights the specific characteristics of cacao grown in Belize. The beans, a blend of Amelonado and Upper Amazon Forastero varieties, undergo a controlled fermentation process in wooden boxes before roasting. With a composition limited to only two ingredients, cocoa beans and cane sugar, the bar emphasizes the natural profile of the harvest. This focus on minimal processing earned the bar a Bronze award at the 2023 European Chocolate Awards.
Quality and agricultural standards are central to this bar. The cacao is sourced from the Maya Mountain region and carries an Organic certification. By utilizing organic farming practices, the maker maintains a link between the biodiversity of the Belizean soil and the final character of the chocolate.
