About

Costa Esmeraldas 80%

Fossa Chocolate is a bean-to-bar maker based in Singapore. They focus on small-batch production, overseeing the transformation of raw cacao into finished bars within their own facility.

This 80% bar highlights cacao sourced from Esmeraldas, Ecuador, where the beans undergo fermentation and drying in a centralized facility. The chocolate is refined using a melanger, creating a texture that allows the specific profile of these beans to emerge. The flavor experience features notes of chestnuts, florals, and dried figs, reflecting the character of the origin. This specific bar earned an International Chocolate Awards 2019 Asia-Pacific Silver medal.

The formulation is kept minimal, consisting only of cacao beans and cane sugar. By focusing on these two ingredients, the maker aims to showcase the natural output of the Ecuadorian harvest without additional flavorings or additives.
