Dark Forest Chocolate

Dark Costa Rica 65%

Borne out of the need to improve the lives of the local farmers, Buena Nota Imports recently began importing and marketing this bean grown at Hacienda Azul small, family-owned farm in the eastern foothills of Costa Rica. Dark Forest Chocolate began using it in 2016 and now makes a 50% Dark Milk and 55% Goat Milk chocolate with these beans which have both won awards from the Academy of Chocolate and the International Chocolate Awards in 2017. This 65% Dark is a chance to let the beans shine on their own. This chocolate has a traditional, slightly sweeter, dark chocolate flavor. With very little bright fruit, it is the bass note in the band and pairs well with a full-bodied Cabernet or even a fruity Riesling.
