Name: 70% Dark
Brand: Beaningful
Rating: 4 (1 reviews)

Beaningful is an artisan bean-to-bar maker operating out of Lithuania. By focusing on small-batch production, the producer maintains control over the entire manufacturing process to preserve the specific character of their chosen cacao. This 70% dark bar reflects a commitment to a focused, minimal ingredient list consisting only of cocoa beans, sugar, and cocoa butter.

The flavor profile centers on the Semuliki Forest in Uganda, a region known for its specific environmental conditions. The beans undergo a standardized post-harvest protocol, which includes five days of fermentation in wooden boxes followed by six to eight days of sun-drying. This process results in a final bar characterized by notes of dried fruit, raisins, and nuts. The quality of this approach was recognized with a Bronze award at the 2024 International Chocolate Awards (European).

Quality and transparency remain at the forefront of the production cycle. The bar is certified Organic, ensuring that the agricultural practices align with strict environmental standards. Each 60-gram bar represents the intersection of careful post-harvest management and precise European manufacturing techniques.
