Porcelana Criollo 70% dark chocolate

The name already indicates the preciousness and delicacy of this cocoa, which is unique in the world. Porcelana is a single origin Criollo, which is the progenitor of all cocoa. A product that comes from very poorly productive and particularly sensitive plants, but has a really unbelievable richness of aroma, roundness, spice and mildness. The bean is so light - hence the name Porcelana - that the bar looks almost like milk chocolate. A type of cocoa bean was used for this chocolate, which is far beyond the imagination of chocolate on the world market. An intense chocolate of extraordinary strength, but at the same time with a tempting smoothness and acidity that conveys freshness. The decisive aroma of roasted almonds with a hint of olive oil is a unique experience that leaves you wanting more.

A total of only 20,000 bars of this chocolate are produced annually, as there are only around 3,000 kg of this cocoa. Each board has its own number and is therefore truly unique.
