Minimal Classic 65% is a dark, bean-to-bar chocolate made from Ghanaian cacao with a profile centered on notes of sweet chocolate.
Minimal is a Japanese bean-to-bar maker that produces chocolate in Tokyo. As an artisan producer, the company manages its own production process to create bars that highlight specific cacao origins.
The Classic 65% bar features cacao sourced from Ghana. This dark chocolate is composed of two ingredients, cacao beans and sugar, and contains no added cocoa butter, lecithin, or vanilla. The bar is refined to 39μm and follows a dark roasting profile. The sensory experience is defined by clear notes of sweet chocolate.
The maker maintains a direct relationship with the farmers who supply the cacao beans. This direct-trade approach reflects a focus on the supply chain from the origin in Ghana to the finished 50g bar.
