San Agustin 70% Dark Chocolate Bar – Gift

These beautiful Trinitario beans come from the ancient San Agustin district in the foothills of the Colombian Massifs.

Farming methods are traditional, and no chemicals are used.

What I find fascinating is that when you add different amounts of sugar to it, it reveals different flavour notes.

In the 70% you catch glimpses of red fruits but what strikes me more are the honey nutty notes.

You would probably find it easier to use the San Agustin Chef’s Drops in cooking, but if you don’t have any around, it will be just a minute’s extra work to break up this bar.
