A 72% dark chocolate bar from Spanish maker Essenzo Cacao, featuring cocoa beans sourced from the Chanthaburi region of Thailand.
The Chanthaburi 72% bar is produced by Essenzo Cacao, an artisan bean-to-bar maker based in Galicia, Spain. By managing the production process from the raw bean to the final finished bar, the maker maintains full control over the transformation of the cocoa harvest.
This bar highlights cocoa beans sourced from Chanthaburi, Thailand. The sensory profile is defined by notes of tropical fruit, rum, and raisins. The composition is kept minimal, consisting only of cocoa beans and cane sugar. The production process explicitly excludes the use of lecithin, vanillin, and vegetable fats, allowing the natural character of the Thai origin to remain the primary focus.
The quality and specific profile of this Thai-origin bar have been recognized within the professional community, earning a Silver award at the 2024 International Chocolate Awards.
