Earl Grey Tea 57%

Kasama Chocolate is an artisan maker dedicated to the craft of bean-to-bar production. Based in Canada, they have earned international recognition for their refined approach to chocolate making, including silver and bronze distinctions at the International Chocolate Awards. Their philosophy centers on highlighting the unique terroir of their carefully selected cacao origins, ensuring that the bean remains the focal point of the final experience.

The Earl Grey Tea 57% bar is a masterclass in balance and infusion. Utilizing single-origin cacao from the Davao region of the Philippines, the chocolate serves as a canvas for a sophisticated blend of black tea, essential bergamot oil, and delicate cornflower petals. The 57% cacao content provides a smooth, approachable body that allows the bright, citrusy perfume of the bergamot and the tannic elegance of the tea to shine through without interference from additives like lecithin, vanillin, or vegetable fats.

This bar is defined by a sensory profile that highlights distinct floral, tea-forward, and citrus notes. By emphasizing a clean ingredient list and precise processing, the makers ensure the flavor remains authentic to both the tea blend and the Philippine cacao. It is an exceptional example of how creative inclusions can elevate the bean to bar process while respecting the inherent character of the primary ingredient.
