Solkiki Ecuadorian Cashew Milk 53%

Creamy and dreamy with a hint of stoneground cashew to balance this very chocolatey chocolate. Solkiki's Esmeraldas chocolate ranked among the world's finest at the CoE cacao cup, and they've since made dark, dark milk and soy-milk versions - all winning gold or silver accolades.

Technically a dark milk (over 50% cacao) but Solkiki's dark milks start at 60%, so 53% really isn't so much a walk in the park as a stroll through the exotic Cloud Forests of Ecuador's West coast.

An outstanding example of Ecudaorian cacao given a very accessible treatment. Not too dark, not too sweet, very wide appeal... You've been warned.

Flavour abounds right down to the last morsel of this bar from Solkiki Chocolate Maker, one of the finest craft chocolate makers in the United Kingdom. 

Cacao Origin

Freddy Salazar's farm Costa Esmeraldas, 6 miles off the coast in NW Ecuador's Cloud Forests.

Freddy Salazar’s estate in the Cloud Forest of Costa Esmeraldas is situated on an ex-cattle ranch. Very steep, lush, layered slopes complicate the daily work but the year round climate stays quite stable with a short wet season and misty, drizzly summers in the aptly named Cloud Forests. Minimal temperature fluctuation means consistency is more achievable. Management of the cocoa orchards creates over 40 full-time jobs in the local community of rural Esmeraldas.
