Amazonia Wild Cocoa 72%

Meybona is a German chocolate producer that operates under a bean-to-bar model. Based in the North Rhine-Westphalia region, the company oversees the production process from the raw cacao stage through to the finished bar, distinguishing itself from large-scale manufacturers through its internal control of the manufacturing cycle.

This 72% dark chocolate bar is crafted using cocoa mass, sugar, cocoa butter, and Bourbon vanilla. The manufacturing technique relies on roll-refining to achieve the desired particle size, followed by a 48-hour conching process. This extended time in the conche is designed to aerate the chocolate and refine the texture, resulting in a consistent mouthfeel.

The bar contains 625 kcal per 100 grams. As is common in facilities that process various ingredients, the producer notes that the bar may contain traces of gluten, wheat, milk, hazelnuts, almonds, pistachios, and soy.
