Super Santos is a 75% single-estate dark chocolate from Sumba, Indonesia. Discover a vibrant profile of peach, melon, and white grapes.
The Super Santos bar is a testament to the distinct terroir of Sumba, Indonesia. Crafted from a premium blend of Criollo and Trinitario beans, this chocolate is sourced exclusively from the Gaura Estate. By focusing on a single estate, the maker highlights the specific agricultural nuances that define these Indonesian beans, offering enthusiasts a clear window into the island's unique soil and climate conditions.
In the hands of the maker, the beans undergo a meticulous post-harvest journey, including a five-day fermentation in specialized two-tiered wooden boxes followed by seven days of sun drying. Once at the factory, the refining process takes place in a melanger to achieve a refined texture. This 75% dark chocolate keeps the ingredient list minimal, featuring only cocoa beans and cane sugar. The result is a vibrant sensory experience characterized by bright, fruit-forward notes of peach, melon, and white grapes.
The craftsmanship behind Super Santos emphasizes the integrity of the raw material. With a fat content of 38g and sugar content of 25g per 100g, the balance of the bar is engineered to allow the natural acidity and aromatic profile of the Sumba beans to shine through. It is a compelling example of how controlled fermentation and intentional, small-scale processing can transform high-quality origin beans into an expressive, nuanced dark chocolate.
