Vivani is a prominent German chocolate producer recognized for its commitment to ecological agriculture and artistic presentation.

The company communicates primarily with a German audience, emphasizing its European roots and production standards.
The "Fine Dark 85% Cacao" bar is designed for enthusiasts of high-intensity chocolate, featuring a minimalist ingredient list of cocoa mass, cocoa butter, and raw cane sugar. With a significant 85% cacao content and low sugar (14g per 100g), the flavor profile focuses purely on the beans without distraction. Notably, the formulation is free from lecithin, utilizing a high fat content (53g per 100g) from added cocoa butter to achieve a smooth melt and velvety texture.
Sourcing for this 80-gram bar focuses on the Caribbean, specifically utilizing cacao beans from Santo Domingo in the Dominican Republic. The product is strictly plant-based and holds both Organic and Vegan certifications, ensuring that the agricultural practices meet established ecological standards. This approach aligns with the brand's broader ethos of responsible production within the organic chocolate sector.
