Dominican Republic Dark Chocolate Buttons 70%

The bitterness of this chocolate is enhanced by dark cherry, red wine and floral notes. Exotic and fruity, Saint Domingue has a round, bitter cocoa flavour with an exceptionally long lingering aftertaste, elevated by spices and olives notes. Cocoa is mainly grown in the Northern part of the island, more specifically in the Cibao valley. This is one of the most northern cocoa areas in the world. The Dominican Republic is one half of the island of Hispaniola, shared with Haiti. The variety is Trinitario Hispaniola, a select bean.

70% Cocoa Solids.

Pairs well with Earl Grey China Moon, Winter Dream, Glogg, Superior English Breakfast, King of Ginseng Oolong.

Matched with Voodoo Comet coffee.

A delicious hot chocolate can be prepared by adding 25g of chocolate to 150ml of your milk of choice (or to your own taste) and microwaving for a couple of minutes, stopping to stir after 1 minute. If you want to create a frothy version simply shake in a securely lidded shaker or used a milk steamer if you have one.

As the drink is made with pure chocolate there should be no need to sweeten, whether you like milk or dark chocolate.
