A 75% dark chocolate bar from Maüa, highlighting Acriollados Trinitarios beans from Waslala, Nicaragua with notes of orange, cherries, and raisins.
Maüa is a bean-to-bar maker that produces this 75% dark chocolate bar, weighing 70 grams. The focus is on the specific characteristics of the region, utilizing beans sourced from the Waslala area in the Región Caribe Norte of Nicaragua. The operation emphasizes a transparent approach to the production cycle, beginning at the harvest level.
The Acriollados Trinitarios beans undergo a careful post-harvest process, which includes fermentation in horizontal wooden crates followed by a 9-day solar drying phase. This extended drying period aims to preserve the structural integrity of the cacao before it is roasted and refined. The resulting flavor profile presents a combination of citrusy orange and dark stone fruit notes, specifically cherries and raisins, finished with subtle herbal undertones.
The composition of the bar is limited to three core components, specifically cocoa beans, cocoa butter, and organic unrefined cane sugar. This minimal ingredient list is managed under strict organic standards, ensuring that the agricultural practices align with the certification requirements for the finished product.
