About Seasonal
Minimal is a bean-to-bar chocolate maker based in Tokyo, Japan. The maker focuses on highlighting the intrinsic characteristics of cacao through small-batch production.
The Seasonal bar features 59% cacao sourced from Piura, Peru. These beans undergo a 6-day fermentation process in wooden boxes before being sun-dried. The production process involves a light roast and refinement in a melanger to preserve the natural character of the beans. This results in a milk chocolate profile defined by a distinct bouquet of flowers, crafted from only cacao beans, sugar, whole milk powder, and cocoa butter.
