A world-renowned 78% dark chocolate from Oialla, featuring wild Beniano cacao for a complex profile of fruit, nuts, and intense, refined cocoa depth.
The Beniano Bolivia 78% bar is a masterpiece from Oialla, a dedicated bean to bar maker based in Denmark. This bar showcases the rare and wild-harvested cacao found deep within the Beniano region of Bolivia. As an artisan producer, Oialla maintains complete control over the process, ensuring that the unique characteristics of this remote origin are preserved from the tropical forest to the finished bar.
The sensory experience is defined by a sophisticated balance between high cacao intensity and nuanced flavor. Crafted using a melanger for precise refining, the texture remains elegant while allowing the bean's natural profile to shine. Tasting reveals a robust foundation of intense cacao, harmoniously layered with bright notes of fruit and a warm, nutty undertone. This depth has earned the bar significant recognition, including the prestigious International Chocolate Awards World Gold in 2014.
Integrity remains at the heart of the Oialla philosophy. The cacao beans undergo a careful protocol, fermenting in wooden boxes for six to seven days before being dried under the sun. The ingredient list is refreshingly simple and entirely organic, consisting only of cacao beans, cane sugar, and added cocoa butter, ensuring that no artificial flavors distract from the purity of the Bolivian terroir.
