Description
The Canadian chocolate makers at Soma are creative chocolate enthusiasts. In our opinion, they make chocolates that are among the best in the world. And these aren’t all chocolates that can only be grasped by chocolate enthusiasts who have already tasted hundreds or thousands of chocolates. Soma is also leading the way in creating chocolates that are truly different, perhaps even unique, and that everyone from novice chocolate lover to chocolate expert will understand. The Old School chocolates are a great example of chocolates that everyone will understand just how special they are. The roasted white chocolate, as well as their Mango Chili chocolate, also belong in that list.
We are especially delighted by excellent single-origin chocolates. Chocolate where you taste the origin, and get a very long and varied taste experience from a small piece of chocolate. Soma does that excellently too, more than excellently.
This bar is just a little bit different. Just a little bit different, we should say. Soma’s original intention was to age the chocolate in oak. Together with winemaker friends from the Stratus vineyards, they decided to do something a little different with this chocolate. They chose to add an oak barrel containing the lees (residue from grape skins and yeasts from winemaking) and the roasted cocoa. The mixture was mixed and aged for three months. This resulted in a beautiful blend: Stratus chocolate.
Origin: Stratus Vineyards, Niagara-On-the-Lake, Canada.
Cacao from Hacienda Victoria, Ecuador.
