Dark Milk 60%, Essenzo Cacao

Dark Milk 60%

Essenzo Cacao operates as a bean-to-bar producer based in Galicia, Spain. By controlling the entire production cycle from the raw bean to the finished bar, the maker focuses on preserving the character of the origin in their output.

The 60% Dark Milk bar highlights the beans harvested by the Paquibato Cooperative in Davao, Philippines. This bar avoids the inclusion of additives such as lecithin, vanillin, and vegetable fats, relying instead on a formulation of cocoa beans, organic cane sugar, milk powder, and cocoa butter to achieve its texture and flavor profile. The quality of this approach has been recognized with multiple honors, including European Gold and World Bronze awards at the International Chocolate Awards between 2023 and 2024.

Sourcing practices remain a priority for the maker, who maintains direct trade claims for their supply chain. By working directly with cooperatives like the one in Paquibato, the producer ensures a closer link between the Filipino farming communities and the final product manufactured in Galicia.
