LIM Chocolate Tumaco 74%

Try this 74% dark chocolate bar for a deep and warm cocoa experience, with notes of dark caramel, molasses and whiskey due to the origin of Tumaco, Colombia.

This Colombian bean offers a complex but gentle flavour journey. The roasting is done with a light process, at medium temperature for medium duration. The result is balanced, with a prevalence of dark flavours, hints of whiskey and dry distillates.

The cocoa butter improves its texture and allows for greater melting, enveloping the entire palate. Long-term stone refining allows for complete aromatic development.
