Caramelized Goat Cheese

The Caramelized Goat Cheese bar is a standout example of experimental craft chocolate, pushing the boundaries of traditional flavor profiles. Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this bar highlights the distinct terroir of the Duarte region in the Dominican Republic, specifically utilizing high-quality beans sourced from the renowned Öko Caribe farm lot.

At a 58% cacao concentration, the chocolate offers a sophisticated canvas for its unique inclusions. During production, the beans undergo a precise fermentation process in tiered wooden boxes for five to six days, followed by refining in a melanger to achieve a velvety texture. The result is a profile defined by the tangy, creamy richness of goat milk whey, balanced by deep, lingering notes of caramel and honey.

This innovative approach to flavor has earned significant recognition, including a Silver award at the International Chocolate Awards European 2021-22. Each 50-gram bar reflects a commitment to craftsmanship that favors complexity and daring ingredient combinations over conventional sweetness, making it a conversation piece for any enthusiast interested in the evolution of modern bean-to-bar chocolate.
