Qantu's Bagua 70% is an award-winning Canadian bean-to-bar chocolate highlighting the delicate floral and honeyed notes of Peruvian Amazonas cacao.
Their Bagua 70% bar stands as a testament to their craft, earning a Gold medal at the 2021 Academy of Chocolate awards. The maker focuses on preserving the integrity of the raw materials, ensuring that the essence of the terroir is present in every bite.
The heart of this bar lies in the unique cocoa beans sourced from the Amazonas region of Peru. To unlock the full potential of these beans, they undergo a rigorous 7-day fermentation process in wooden boxes followed by careful sun drying. This preparation results in a refined flavor profile characterized by elegant notes of jasmine, orange blossom, and a distinct hint of honey. The ingredient list is intentionally kept minimal, consisting only of cocoa beans, cane sugar, and added cocoa butter to create a smooth, harmonious experience.
Qantu maintains a deep commitment to the provenance of their ingredients. By working closely with specific regions in Peru, they emphasize the importance of origin-specific flavor. For enthusiasts who wish to learn more about the maker's philosophy and their connection to their sourcing partners, further information is provided through their official website.
