Chocolate flavour profile description

This chocolate opens with a distinctive balance of sweetness, warm spices (cinnamon, pepper), and subtle fresh fruit and caramel notes. Texture is delicate and creamy. The flavour deepens with browned fruit and fleeting floral hints. It's complex and harmonious, with a clear yet mild profile, low acidity, and pleasant astringency.
