Chocolate flavour profile description
This chocolate starts with balanced moderate cacao, medium-low bitterness, and slightly elevated pleasant astringency. Low acidity follows harmoniously with browned and tropical fruits. Later, astringency returns, accompanied by nut skins, woodiness, subtle spices, and caramel. The finish is clean, featuring a long-lasting combination of sweet cacao and nutty astringency.
