A gentle "Arriba"

| Tasting Experience | Like the other productions from "Republica del Cacao", this Manabi bar is of high quality. Not strong of flavours when opening the wrapper, it relieves itself in the mouth. The fruity distinctive aroma of the "Arriba" bean develops with a hint of acidity that helps appreciate the very light sweet aroma. Overall, an excellent experience, although lacking in personality. |
| This bar is | Very good |
