Chocolate flavour profile description
This complex chocolate boasts a rich creamy dark chocolate note all along, with a good balance between moderate fresh fruits (berries, citrus) and browned fruits, all equally moderate core attributes. Wood and hints of vegetal appear later, finishing with low nut flesh and a long chocolate aftertaste.
