Maker's comments | The Island of Java is well known for the quality of its cocoa beans which come from Criollo trees brought by the Spanish in the 17th century. Javanese beans have a particular flavor profile due to the island terroir and the harvest, fermentation and drying method used. Add to this Francois Pralus’ magic touch and the result is this amazing chocolate that imparts a hint of smokiness. About Francois Pralus: Our Maître Chocolatier selected cacao from the finest origins in the world. The beans are roasted and transformed into a delightful chocolate in his Roanne facility. He has his own cacao |

Tasting Experience | The nice "Pralus" wrapper delivers a gentle aromas of cacao, earthiness and some copper notes. While melting, these are re-enforced by the excellent texture and some fruitiness can be felt among the very mild cacao bitterness where some smokiness can be notes. The after taste is long and mostly cacao. Overall an excellent complex chocolate bar for chocolate "aficionados". |
