Príncipe Roça Sundy 70%

Príncipe Roça Sundy 70% is a masterfully crafted expression of origin, produced by the Swedish bean to bar maker, Standout Chocolate. Based in Sweden, the maker is celebrated for a meticulous approach to processing that honors the specific terroir of the Roça Sundy farm on the island of Príncipe. By maintaining full control from raw bean to finished bar, they preserve the integrity of the unique Amelonado variety used in this release.

The sensory experience is defined by a sophisticated, nuanced flavor profile. Notes of rich chocolatey intensity are balanced by the creamy, nutty undertones of macadamia and a delicate finish of vanilla. This clarity of flavor is achieved through a precise production method involving a six to seven day fermentation in wooden boxes, followed by careful sun-drying on wooden tables. The composition is kept intentionally simple, featuring only cacao beans and cane sugar to ensure the bean remains the focal point.

Standout Chocolate pairs its commitment to flavor with a deep dedication to sustainable practices. Recognizing the importance of the entire lifecycle of their product, they utilize FSC-certified wood pulp for their outer packaging and biodegradable biofilm for the inner wrap. Their consistent excellence has been recognized internationally, earning accolades including the International Chocolate Awards European Silver, an Academy of Chocolate Bronze, and a Great Taste Award.
