Tanzania Plain Dark 75%

Kocoatrait stands at the forefront of the bean-to-bar movement, crafting chocolate with a distinct focus on sustainability and origin transparency. By sourcing their cacao from the Kokoa Kamili fermentary in the Kilombero Valley of Tanzania, they ensure that the foundation of their bars is rooted in high-quality agricultural practices. The farmers here employ a precise 3-tier box fermentation method followed by careful sun drying to coax the best character from every harvest.

The sensory experience of this 75% dark bar is defined by its clean, minimalist composition. With only cacao beans and khandsari sugar as ingredients, the chocolate highlights the natural vibrancy of Tanzanian cacao. Expect a bright and lively profile dominated by distinct notes of red berries and a pleasant, refreshing acidity. The refining process, performed in a melanger, ensures a texture that allows these complex fruit-forward characteristics to bloom on the palate.

Kocoatrait's commitment to thoughtful production is reflected in the accolades this bar has earned on the global stage. It gained recognition with a Silver award at the International Chocolate Awards Asia-Pacific and a Bronze award at the International Chocolate Awards World in 2019. Beyond the flavor, the bar is crafted to be inclusive for various dietary lifestyles, holding both Vegan and Gluten Free certifications.
