About
El Castillero 75%
El Castillero 75% is a dark chocolate bar produced by the established French maker Bonnat. The cacao used for this specific bar is sourced from the Indio Maíz Biological Reserve in Nicaragua. This bar serves as an example of Bonnat's focus on single-origin identity, highlighting the distinct agricultural characteristics found within this protected tropical rainforest area.
The sensory profile of this 75% cacao bar includes layered notes of honey, yellow fruit, molasses, licorice, and dates. Bonnat emphasizes a traditional production style, ensuring the chocolate is made using only cocoa mass, cocoa butter, and sugar. The formulation excludes the use of lecithin, vanillin, and vegetable fats, allowing the natural character of the Nicaraguan beans to remain the primary focus. The bar was recognized with a Gold award at the 2019 International Chocolate Awards.
Each 100-gram bar is produced with a commitment to maintaining the integrity of the ingredients. While the bar is crafted to highlight the purity of the cocoa, it is processed in a facility that also handles other ingredients, meaning the product may contain traces of nuts and dairy.
