A 71% Peruvian dark chocolate by Heinde & Verre, featuring bright notes of passion fruit, red berries, and subtle citrus from Piura Blanco cacao.
Heinde & Verre is an artisan chocolate maker based in the Netherlands. They focus on precision-driven production, transforming single-origin cacao into finished bars at their own facility. This specific release highlights the Piura Blanco bean, a prized variety sourced from the San Lorenzo Valley in the Piura region of Peru.
To achieve its characteristic profile, the cacao undergoes a post-harvest process of 6 to 8 days of fermentation in wooden boxes, followed by sun drying. The resulting 71% cacao bar is crafted from cacao beans, cacao butter, beet sugar, and sunflower lecithin. The flavor experience features bright acidity and fruit-forward notes, including young red fruit, passion fruit, and citrus, balanced by a grounded layer of soft nuttiness and coffee.
The quality of this production is reflected in its industry recognition, having earned a silver award at the Academy of Chocolate in 2022 and a bronze award in 2021. The bar is produced according to vegan standards.
