Svenska Kakao is a dedicated bean-to-bar chocolate maker based in Sweden. This commitment to transparency and meticulous craftsmanship defines their approach to fine chocolate.
The Bourbon Aged 72% bar showcases the exceptional quality of cacao sourced from the Öko-Caribe region in the Dominican Republic. By marrying these beans with the depth of bourbon, the makers have created a sensory experience defined by distinct notes of oak, rich vanilla, and a warm, spirit-forward finish. This harmonious profile earned the bar a Silver award at the 2017 International Chocolate Awards.
The ingredient list is intentionally minimal, consisting only of cocoa beans, sugar, and bourbon to let the quality of the raw materials shine. While the bar is crafted with care, consumers should be aware that the production environment may include traces of nuts and milk. It remains a testament to what is possible when high-quality organic origin cacao meets the patient art of aging.
