About
Semuliki Forest
The Semuliki Forest bar is an exceptional expression of craft chocolate from Standout Chocolate, an artisan producer based in Sweden. Dedicated to the bean-to-bar philosophy, the maker oversees every step of the process, transforming raw, high-quality cacao into a finished bar that highlights the authentic character of its Ugandan origin.
At a bold 85% cacao content, this bar is a testament to the purity of its ingredients, containing only cacao beans and cane sugar. Through the use of a melanger for precise refining, the maker coaxes out a surprisingly bright and complex flavor profile. Enthusiasts can expect distinct notes of stonefruit, vibrant citrus, and a subtle hint of banana, proving that high-percentage dark chocolate can be nuanced and aromatic rather than purely bitter.
The quality of the Semuliki Forest bar begins at the source, where the beans undergo a meticulous 6 to 7 day fermentation in wooden boxes followed by careful sun-drying on raised beds. This dedication to process has earned the bar significant international recognition, including accolades from the Academy of Chocolate, the International Chocolate Awards, and Great Taste. As a certified organic product, it reflects a deep commitment to sustainable and clean production methods.
