HÖGANÄS is a tree-to-bar chocolate maker based in Sweden, operating under the philosophy that a small piece of chocolate can make a big difference. This bar highlights the specific characteristics of the Los Ríos region of Ecuador, utilizing the Arriba Nacional bean variety to define its profile.
The production process prioritizes traditional post-harvest techniques, specifically the use of sun-drying for the cacao beans. The resulting 70% dark chocolate presents a refined composition, crafted from cocoa mass, cocoa butter, sugar, and soy lecithin, containing 45g of fat per 100g. The caliber of this production was recognized in 2020, when the bar received the Premio Pepa de Oro at the Cumbre Mundial Del Cacao.
As a tree-to-bar maker, HÖGANÄS maintains direct control over the transformation of the cacao. By focusing on the Arriba Nacional variety from a single origin, the producer seeks to showcase the clarity of Ecuadorian terroir within its Scandinavian facility.
