This right here is sexy chocolate that will enliven all your senses while creating a mood of pure bliss. When you snap a piece of the bar and hold it to your nose, the fragrance that envelops you is both intoxicating and lingering…a chocolate perfume of the finest quality. This  exquisite bar is the “Best in Competition Gold Winner” for plain/origin dark chocolate bars in the 2024 Americas USA & Canada Bean-to-Bar Craft Chocolatier Competition of the International Chocolate Awards…an incredibly high honor because many hundreds of bars are considered and this is the overall winner.

Place the piece in your mouth and as it melts on your tongue you’ll be met with a gorgeous flavor arc with hints of spice and citrus in the greeting notes that evolve seductively into caramel and nuts. The bar has so much layered depth and sophistication, yet it’s delicate. 

The beans for this delectable bar are “Blaco Jaguar”, a criollo cacao varietal grown by Don Margarito Mendoza and his family in Chiapas , Mexico. Criollo cacaos are rare beans that possess a higher percentage of cacao butter than typical beans. The resulting chocolate is lighter in color with a creamy mouthfeel and a whisper of mouth-watering acidity.
