Semuliki 80%
Essenzo Cacao operates as a dedicated bean-to-bar producer based in Galicia, Spain. By managing the process from the raw bean to the finished tablet within their own facility, the maker maintains full control over the transformation of the cacao.
This 80% dark chocolate bar is crafted using only two ingredients, specifically cocoa beans and cane sugar. It is notable for its exclusion of additives such as lecithin, vanillin, and vegetable fats. The sensory profile reflects the specific characteristics of beans from the Semuliki region of Uganda, yielding a profile marked by notes of figs, honey, banana, and candied fruit.
The quality of the production process has been recognized by industry peers, with the bar earning Gold and Silver awards at the International Chocolate Awards in 2022.
