A 75% dark chocolate from Belgian maker Chocolatoa, sourced from the Nacional Arriba Tsáchila region in Ecuador with floral notes of jasmine and honey.
The 75% Ecuador Nacional Arriba Tsáchila is produced by the Belgian artisan maker Chocolatoa. This bar highlights the specific characteristics of the Nacional Arriba cocoa variety grown within the Tsáchila region of Ecuador.
The sensory experience is defined by delicate floral aromas of jasmine and orange blossom, balanced by the sweetness of honey and a grounding note of nuts. These characteristics are preserved through a precise post-harvest process involving 108 hours of fermentation in wooden boxes, followed by natural sun-drying on racks. The bar is crafted from a simple blend of cocoa beans, beet sugar, and added cocoa butter.
The quality of this production is recognized by industry peers, having earned an International Chocolate Awards European Bronze for the 2021-22 cycle, as well as an Academy of Chocolate Bronze medal in 2022.
