Madagascar Sambirano 60% Dark Milk

The Madagascar Sambirano 60% Dark Milk represents a masterclass in balancing high-cacao intensity with the comforting richness of dairy. Crafted using select Trinitario beans, this bar is a testament to the distinct terroir of the Sambirano Valley in Madagascar. This region is world-renowned for producing cacao with a signature brightness that stands out even when softened by the addition of milk.

On the palate, this bar offers a sophisticated sensory experience. The high cacao content provides a robust foundation, which is elevated by notes of bright fruit, followed by a velvety, creamy texture that settles into deep, lingering hints of caramel. The complexity is supported by a precise post-harvest process, where beans are fermented in wooden boxes for six days with three deliberate turns, followed by up to two weeks of sun drying to lock in the flavor profile.

Committed to quality and integrity, this organic-certified bar relies on a minimalist approach to ingredients: high-quality cacao beans, organic cane sugar, milk powder, and additional cacao butter. Its consistent recognition at prestigious international stages, including multiple Gold wins at the Academy of Chocolate Awards, highlights the meticulous craftsmanship that defines this particular expression of Sambirano cacao.
