Welcome to Day #1 of Chocolate and Peru Theme Week.
Today's Peru Single Origin 66% Cacao Piura Blanco (bar) was created by Hogarth Chocolate Makers (Nelson, New Zealand).
The Hogarth company name refers to chief chocolate maker, Karl Hogarth. And the company offers a variety of bean-to-bar chocolates, including today's single origin Peru bar.
Aroma notes for this single origin Peru chocolate included: gentle fermented cacao, cream; very faint, balanced earth; and very faint diffuse spice and lemon-herb (oxalis).
Texture: smooth with a very slight granularity (astringency).
Flavor notes included: chocolate (warm cocoa/drinking chocolate), natural diffuse fruit sweetness (faint, slightly tart-sweet pink lemonade and goji berry), and fresh fleeting green (sweet green tea latte with lemon).
Ingredients: Organic fair trade cocoa beans, organic fair trade cocoa butter, organic cane sugar.
Allergen-related information: May contain traces of milk and nuts. "100% Organic, vegan, gluten free, soy free"
