The Beans: sourced, sorted, and expertly roasted by Asel
The taste: profile by Alex
This bar brings you one of the world’s most mysterious and elusive cacaos, the lost Guasare bean of the mountainous Sierra de Perijá region inVenezuela.This unique ancestorial criollo varietal – the very first to exist on earth and only recently rediscovered – begins with a sharp note of Guava, before breaking into a well-developed/complex second wave of figs, coffee, malt and cream.
The process:
We use only two ingredients – cacao from our partner’s hand selected beans and organic cane sugar. Because we never add cocoa butter, our chocolates express the undiluted tastes and full flavour profiles of each single estate’s exquisite beans. To make each bar, we roast, crack, winnow, grind, conch and temper in small batches, before individually moulding and wrapping by hand.
The company:
London Chocolate is part of the bean to bar revolution and makes only small batch premium chocolate. Created in the heart of London’s Canary Wharf, an area synonymous with merchant trade from exotic locations – cacao and sugar have been arriving at these docks since 1802. Our beans are sourced ethically from individual plantations and we give 5% of our profits to sustainable charities.
Ingredients: Organic cocoa beans (70%) and organic cane sugar.
