| Maker's comments | If you follow the birds on their annual mirgrations to Venezuela, they flock to a series of clours forest covered coastal valley- Cuyagua. Home to cacao plantations dating to early 1700's and some of Venezuela's finest cacao beans. This bar's chocolate is created solely from these highly prized cacao beans. They are gently roasted, creating an exceptional single-origin chocolate we know you will treasure for a long time to come. |

| Tasting Experience | "Gentle" or "mild" is the main adjective that woudl suit this great bar. Opening the wrapper delivers a persistent but not strong nutty and floral aroma typical of Venezuelan beans. When melting in the mouth these senstions are joined by hints of copper and later a fruitiness. The after taste is as gently pleasant as the melting with the chocolatey flavor dominating the senses. Overall a very pleasant gentle and sophisticated experience. |
