Chocolate flavour profile description

This chocolate begins with a burst of acidity featuring tropical fresh fruit notes (maracuja), on otherwise balanced core. The development unfolds with dried apricots, accompanied by a complex mix of floral, vegetal, nutty, spicy, and woody undertones. Its smooth texture reveals hints of caramel and panela. A unique chocolate experience.
