Ecuador 75% Volgger Whisky Nibs

Karuna is a bean to bar pioneer based in the dramatic landscape of the Italian Dolomites. Founded by Katya and Armin, the small manufacture operates with a deep commitment to the craft of chocolate making, transforming raw cacao into refined bars that reflect both their alpine home and the specific character of their chosen origins. Their approach prioritizes a hands on process that honors the complexity of the bean.

This specific bar showcases a high 75% cacao content, utilizing the prized Nacional Arriba variety sourced from Esmeraldas, Ecuador. The profile is defined by an intense, dark foundation elevated by the inclusion of 14% crunchy cocoa nibs and a distinct 3.2% whisky infusion. The result is a sophisticated interplay between the earthy floral notes of Ecuadorian cacao and the smoky, boozy undertones of the whisky, earning it a silver award from the Academy of Chocolate in 2021.

Karuna emphasizes integrity not only in the bean but in the entire production cycle. They utilize Fairtrade certified raw cane sugar sourced from Native in Brazil to balance the intensity of the cacao. Furthering their dedication to sustainability, the bars are encased in eco conscious, plastic free, and glue free packaging, featuring interior foils made from compostable cellulose.
