Take time to enjoy the toffee aromas of this chocolate bar before placing a piece in your mouth. Let it melt and enjoy sweet, roasty and dark notes of caramel, brown butter and lingering coffee. Reminiscent of Vietnamese coffee, strong and dark with condensed milk. Allow yourself a moment to close your eyes and imagine you’re in Saigon. Bliss.
The single origin beans of Belvie Đồng Nai 55% Milk Chocolate come from this special Vietnamese province, an area known for fine flavour cacao. The warm and humid climate rolls across wave shaped hills where rich alluvial soil is left by monsoons and floods atop volcanic rock. It’s one of the largest cacao producing areas of Vietnam, with a growing reputation for high-quality beans that are full of flavour.
Jannie and Marc have always described themselves as “chocolate addicts”. They started out making chocolate at home, but in 2015 decided they wanted to share their passion with the world – and so Belvie was born. Made from the finest Vietnamese cocoa beans, Belvie’s chocolate is handcrafted in small batches to maintain quality. Their beans are purchased directly from local farmers, and they see paying a premium price as an important step in halting the decline of Vietnam’s cocoa farmers.
