72% Dark

Malagos Chocolate operates out of Davao City, Philippines, maintaining a tree-to-bar manufacturing process. As a bean-to-bar producer, the brand manages the entire cycle from the cultivation of cacao trees to the final tempering of the bar, allowing for significant control over the development of the final product.

The 72% Dark bar utilizes Trinitario cacao beans. The production involves ball milling, a method used to refine the cocoa liquor, cane sugar, and cocoa butter into a smooth texture. The addition of soy lecithin ensures stability and consistency in the finished chocolate. This approach has earned recognition at the International Chocolate Awards and the Academy of Chocolate.

The ingredients list is limited to cocoa liquor, cane sugar, cocoa butter, and soy lecithin. Consumers should note the presence of soy in this product. Furthermore, because the manufacturing facility handles nuts and dairy, those with specific dietary sensitivities should be aware of potential cross-contamination.
