Chocolate flavour profile description
This complex chocolate opens with a robust cacao note, and a mild and creamy caramel touch. A subtle acidity develops and persists to the finish, accompanied by light browned fruits and clear mild spices (cinnamon, pepper, clove). Nutty and vegetal undertones, a lingering woody note support light astringency in the aftertaste.
