This 72% dark chocolate by Spanish bean-to-bar maker Essenzo Cacao features Trinitario beans from Davao, Philippines, finished with fleur de sel.
Essenzo Cacao is a bean-to-bar producer located in Galicia, Spain. By maintaining control over the entire production cycle, the maker transforms raw cacao beans directly into finished bars within their own facility. The Flor de Sal Filipinas 72% serves as a primary example of their work, highlighting the specific characteristics of their selected harvest.
The bar is crafted using Trinitario variety cacao sourced from the Davao region of the Philippines. This origin provides a foundation for notes of almond cream, honey, and sweet fruit. The addition of fleur de sel provides a saline contrast to the inherent sweetness of the cacao and the 28g per 100g sugar content. The production process intentionally omits common industrial additives such as lecithin, vanillin, PGPR, and vegetable fats, relying instead on cocoa beans, cane sugar, cocoa butter, and sea salt.
The focus remains on the purity of the raw materials and the precision of the manufacturing process. By keeping the ingredient list minimal, the maker allows the profile of the Davao-grown beans to remain the central focus, while the fleur de sel acts as a textural and flavor-enhancing element rather than a mask for the cacao.
