  2. Ritual Chocolate Bourbon Barrel Aged Chocolate Bar

    Ritual Chocolate Bourbon Barrel Aged Chocolate Bar 60g

    Made from cacao nibs that are aged in bourbon whiskey barrels. This is by no means a whiskey flavored chocolate, but the flavor of the whiskey is detectable.
    75% cacao
    2018 Academy of Chocolate Silver Winner

    This chocolate is made with a blend of cacao nibs that are aged in High West Distillery bourbon whiskey barrels for several months. This process provides subtle notes of the charred, white American Oak and light hints of bourbon whiskey. Aging the nibs in a fresh whiskey barrel has an interesting affect on the final flavor of the chocolate. This is by no means a whiskey flavored chocolate, but the flavor of the whiskey is detectable. What really stands out is the "mellowing" effect of the oak whiskey barrel. The chocolate tastes a bit "softer around the edges" and has a pleasant aroma and aftertaste. Due to this unique aging process, this chocolate is extremely limited. High West is one of the whiskey distilleries in Park City, Utah and is the go-to whiskey for those who want a little taste of the high mountain west. 60g / 2.12 oz per bar.

    Tasting Notes: Honey Nougat, Oak, Whiskey.

    Dark 75% cacao, Nicaraguan cacao.
    International Chocolate Awards European 2019 Gold Winner.

    The story of El Castillero begins in Nicaragua. Specifically at Indio Maiz, a biological reserve considered the natural pearl of Central America. “Normally, we don’t have the right to intervene there,” explains Stéphane Bonnat, who was the first person authorized to take Indio Maiz’s cocoa out of its homeland.

    “At the start, we started to carry out projects like this (about fifteen in total) because our usual planters stopped one after the other. You should know that, over there, the cultivation of cocoa is seen, at best as an ancillary activity, at worst as something for the ‘earthy asses’. A plantation is barely a hectare and a half in area. Our desire was therefore to make these crops profitable, and today our producers earn seven times more than the average income of the country” he said.

    The result is an award winning bar with flavor notes of honey, yellow fruit, molasses, licorice and dates. Kosher-Parve.

    Net wt.: 100g / 3.5oz.
