A sophisticated bean-to-bar creation from Karuna, featuring Tanzanian cacao infused with 17 Alpine botanicals from Edelschwarz Bio Gin.
The Edelschwarz Gin Infused 75% bar is a masterclass in experimentation from Karuna, a dedicated bean-to-bar maker. Based in Italy, Karuna focuses on maintaining the integrity of single-origin cacao, transforming raw beans into complex bars through meticulous, small-batch processing that has earned them recognition on the international stage, including a Silver Award at the 2021 Academy of Chocolate Awards.
This bar is built upon a foundation of organic cacao sourced from the Kilombero Valley in Tanzania, known for its vibrant character. The signature profile is achieved through a unique process where cacao nibs are macerated in Edelschwarz Bio Gin for several days before being dried and crafted into chocolate. This infusion pulls the essence of 17 Alpine botanicals into the 75% dark chocolate, resulting in a distinct tasting experience defined by notes of juniper, mountain herbs, and bright citrus.
Karuna emphasizes quality through transparency and simplicity, ensuring that the botanical complexity of the gin complements rather than masks the base cacao. With a balanced sugar content of 25g per 100g, the bar allows the interplay between the deep, earthy Tanzanian cocoa and the crisp, aromatic alpine botanicals to take center stage, making it a compelling choice for those who appreciate the intersection of mixology and chocolate craft.
