Hogarth Chocolate Monsoon Spicy & Fragrant 66% Mini
Hogarth Chocolate Monsoon Spicy & Fragrant 66% Mini
Hogarth Chocolate Makers have had many requests to bring back their original chili chocolate bar but they thought a simple chili bar would be too boring, and decided to instead capture the flavour of a spicy, fragrant South East Asian curry.
Monsoon balances Ginger, Chili, Lime and Lemongrass to produce delicious results. The initial flavour comes from the ginger and lemongrass, then it develops over time and you get a sense of the lime and cocoa, later the heat of the ginger and chili kick for a mild burn, it's not too hot, just right.
Aromatic, invigorating, unique.

Cacao
Hogarth's Ecuador cacao comes from Hacienda Victoria in Guayaquil, Ecuador.
The genetic variety is Arriba Nacional, a species whose natural home is in Ecuador where it is known as “Fine Flavour” cacao. Hacienda Victoria are experts in fermentation and have no less than 11 different fermentation protocols to choose from.
Hogarth chose a protocol that gives the cocoa very low acidity and a mild fruitiness, focusing more on the cocoa flavour rather than fruitiness. This makes it excellent for high percentage chocolate.
