About Kerala 61.8%
Naviluna is an artisan chocolate producer based in India. Operating as a bean to bar maker, they focus on transforming Indian grown cacao into finished bars. This particular bar showcases the specific agricultural output of Kerala, highlighting a regional profile rarely seen in global markets.
The sensory experience of the Kerala 61.8% is shaped by a precise fermentation protocol using cedar wood boxes. This process influences the bar, which displays notes of cedar wood, pepper, and red berries, supported by secondary hints of coriander, leather, and light tobacco. The texture and profile are defined by a minimal ingredient list consisting solely of cacao beans, unrefined cane sugar, and additional cacao butter.
Naviluna maintains a commitment to ingredient standards by ensuring the bar is certified organic. Every 60 gram bar reflects a technical approach to processing, aiming to preserve the characteristics of the Kerala beans through the entirety of the production cycle.
