Minimal's 90% High Cacao bar is a bean-to-bar creation from Japan, featuring Ghanaian beans with defined nutty and chocolaty flavor notes.
Minimal is a bean-to-bar maker based in Tokyo, Japan, recognized for its focused approach to chocolate production. The High Cacao 90% bar showcases the brand's ability to manipulate high-percentage cacao without overwhelming the palate. The bar weighs 50 grams and is produced with a commitment to transparency and process control.
The sensory experience of this bar is defined by a dark roast profile, which highlights the foundational qualities of the cacao. Processed in a melanger, the bar maintains a texture that supports its primary flavor notes of nuttiness and deep, classic cocoa. This specific roast style is chosen to temper the intensity of the 90% cacao concentration.
The composition of this bar is purposefully simple, containing only two ingredients: cacao beans and sugar. The cacao originates from Ghana. By limiting the input to these two elements, the maker allows the natural character of the Ghanaian beans to serve as the centerpiece of the bar.
