About Bitter Orange 60%
Produced by Paccari in Ecuador, the Bitter Orange 60% bar highlights the characteristics of the Arriba Nacional bean variety. Paccari operates as a bean-to-bar producer, maintaining oversight from the raw ingredient stage through to the finished 50-gram bar.
The sensory profile centers on a combination of citrus, floral, and tangy notes, achieved through the addition of bitter orange essence to the 60% cacao base. The process involves meticulous preparation of the beans, which are fermented, sun-dried, and sorted individually by hand to ensure consistency.
The production follows specific environmental and social standards. The bar holds Organic, Fair Trade, B Corp, Kosher, and Vegan certifications, reflecting a systematic approach to sourcing and ingredient management.
