Uganda 78%

The Uganda 78% bar is a dark chocolate expression crafted from beans grown in the Western region of Uganda. This particular origin is known for producing cacao that balances intensity with fruit-forward characteristics. The bar relies on a simple, transparent ingredient list consisting of cocoa beans, cane sugar, and additional cocoa butter to manage its texture.

Central to the character of this bar is the specific processing protocol, which sees the beans fermented and dried over a period of seven days. This duration ensures the development of a nuanced flavor profile that moves from the initial impression of juicy grape to a mid-palate of earthy walnut. The finish rounds out with a persistent, comforting sensation of fudgy brownie. The recognition of this profile is marked by a Bronze award at the Academy of Chocolate Awards 2025.

Consumers should be aware that the production environment handles a wide range of ingredients. Due to potential cross-contamination, the bar may contain traces of milk, cereals containing gluten, eggs, nuts, and sesame seeds. Checking labels remains important for those with specific sensitivities.
