This unique, subtle cacao starts with a creamy and sweet chocolate note lasting the whole tasting. A low-medium bitterness and astringency support gradually appearing fresh yellow, dark and tropical fruits, and some browned figs. Undertones of nuts and mild spices complete the complexity, that closes with a chocolatey finish.
