Welcome to Day #6 of Chocolate and Costa Rica Theme Week.

If you like cardamom, today's Costa Rica 45% Cacao Cardamom and Coffee Milk Chocolate bar from Sibu Chocolate (San Isidro, Heredia,  Costa Rica) will be a flavorful and delicious find.

The cacao used to make this bar was sourced from a single estate in Guacimo, Limon, Costa Rica, from a Rainforest Alliance Certified Cacao farm. 

This single origin milk chocolate bar had notes of upbeat cardamom (slight tropical punch, bubble gum note) anchored by a lovely coffee-milk (think high-end, coffee ice cream) flavor. The single origin chocolate provided a rich backdrop for these two flavor inclusions.

*Ingredients: chocolate (organic cacao beans, organic cane sugar, organic cocoa butter, milk powder), coffee, cardamom
