A multi-award winning 70% dark bar from Standout Chocolate. Experience the vibrant, fruity profile of organic cacao from the Lachuá region of Guatemala.
Standout Chocolate is a Swedish bean-to-bar maker dedicated to highlighting the nuanced character of single-origin cacao. By working with high-quality, ethically sourced beans, they transform raw agricultural products into exceptional bars that consistently gain international recognition, including multiple 3-star honors at the Great Taste Awards.
The Guatemala Lachuá 70% is a masterclass in minimalist craftsmanship. The flavor profile is remarkably complex, dancing between bright notes of citrus and strawberry, deep undertones of dark sugars, and a sophisticated finish reminiscent of black tea and tropical fruits. Its carefully controlled process, featuring 7 to 8 days of fermentation in wooden boxes followed by a gentle 7 to 10-day shade-drying period, ensures the bean's natural acidity and fruity vibrancy remain intact.
Commitment to the earth is central to the identity of this producer. The cacao used for this bar is certified organic, reflecting a philosophy that prizes environmental stewardship alongside flavor clarity. By controlling every step of the transformation from raw bean to finished bar, Standout Chocolate ensures that the purity of the Guatemalan harvest shines through in every 50-gram serving.
