Nahua - Dark chocolate 70% with coffee - COSTA RICA - 50g
Bean-to-Bar
Dark chocolate connoisseurs will love Nahua’s 70% dark chocolate and coffee bars. Nahua's bars are simple in appearance, but offer a fresh texture and a rich, satisfying creaminess, while preserving the intense bouquet of flavors of the fine cocoa from which they are made.
All Nahua chocolate contains fine cacao nib particles, which their equipment cannot handle. Rather than using time and resources to filter them out, the Nahua chocolate makers decided to keep them, thus making their artisanal chocolate even more interesting.
