Description
Beautiful dark chocolate from Paquibato cacao from the Philippines.
Fossa previously had a beautiful duo set with this, with two bars that were identical except that one had added cacao butter, and the other did not. That was fun to compare, but now it was time to make one beautiful bar with it – and that became this version – without added cacao butter. Cacao and sugar – nothing more.
The makers say about it:
In the Davao Region, located between tropical mountain forests, the Paquibato farmers’ cooperative practices agroforestry, intercropping and organic farming. The result is flavorful cacao, and the protection of the remaining forest fragments of Mount Apo National Park.
For this lot, a blend of five Trinitario cacao varieties and careful post harvesting techniques produced very pleasing cacao that is flavorful and balanced.
Flavor notes described by the makers: osmanthus, honey, raisin
Ingredients: cacao, cane sugar.
Contents 50 grams.
Allergy note from the makers: made in a place where milk and nuts are also processed.
Also nice to compare with other chocolate from paquibato cacao, especially the version from Auro
And nice to compare with other cacao from the Philippines, such as the Fossa Luna or other chocolates from Auro.
