The 70% Santa Ana bar by Vigdis Rosenkilde features rare Peruvian Chuncho cacao with distinct notes of gooseberry, blueberry, and brownie.
The 70% Santa Ana chocolate is produced by Vigdis Rosenkilde, an artisan maker dedicated to highlighting the specific characteristics of rare cacao varieties. This bar focuses on the Chuncho variety sourced from Santa Ana, Peru, a region recognized for its biodiversity and long standing agricultural heritage.
The production process prioritizes the development of the natural flavor profile of the bean. The cacao is fermented for 6 days in wooden boxes, a method intended to balance acidity and bitterness. Following fermentation, the beans are processed using a melanger to refine the texture. This approach yields a sensory profile defined by sharp notes of gooseberry and blueberry, grounded by a lingering finish of brownie.
The composition of the bar is minimalist, utilizing only two ingredients: cacao beans and sugar. This focus on raw material quality has been recognized at the international level, earning silver accolades at the International Chocolate Awards World 2024 and European 2026 competitions.
