Orfève is a bean-to-bar maker based in Switzerland. They source their cacao from the Quillabamba region in La Convención, Cusco, Peru. The beans used for this bar are the Chuncho variety, which are harvested between January and April.
The post-harvest process involves box fermentation followed by sun drying, both supervised by Peruvian agronomy experts. The maker roasts these beans for 43 min at 104°C and subjects the chocolate to 72 hours of conching. Refined in a melanger, the resulting 70% dark chocolate displays flavour notes of hazelnut, blackberry, cinnamon and nutmeg.
This bar is organic and contains shelled cacao beans, raw cane sugar, cocoa butter, and whole cane sugar. It is free from soy, gluten, egg and nuts, though it may contain traces of milk. The recipe does not include lecithin, vanilla, vanillin, PGPR or vegetable fats.
