Award-winning Croatian artisan chocolate maker specializing in innovative bean-to-bar creations and gourmet inclusions from their Zagreb laboratory.
About
Taman
Based in the city of Zagreb, this small scale producer was founded by a creative duo who transitioned their expertise into a dedicated laboratory of flavor.
The sensory experience of a Taman bar is defined by a balance of classical technique and bold curiosity. Their bean to bar range emphasizes the inherent character of the cacao through controlled roasting and thorough conching, resulting in a velvety texture and refined melt. They are particularly celebrated for their creative inclusion bars, which pair fine chocolate with unexpected botanical elements, salts, and aromatic spices to create complex, lingering flavor profiles that evolve on the palate.
Sourcing is central to the Taman philosophy, focusing on high quality beans from renowned origins such as Madagascar, Ecuador, and Vietnam. By selecting fine flavor cacao and maintaining transparency in their process, they ensure the integrity of the final product remains the priority.
