Welcome to Day #5 of Chocolate and Coffee Theme Week.
Today's Coffee 56% Cacao (bar) from Goodio Craft Chocolate was manufactured by Helsinki Heaven Oy (Vantaa, Finland).
According to the Goodio website, the cacao used to make this bar was from Peru.
Aroma notes for this Finnish coffee + chocolate bar included: chocolate, nut and very faint herbal (mint family), coffee and coconut.
Texture: slightly grainy (stoneground) chocolate that broke with a relatively soft snap, but had a pleasant melt.
Flavor notes included: subtle, sweet (Criollo) chocolate; faint coffee; very faint herbal; and subtle caramelized coconut/brown sugar covered, ground nuts.
I appreciated the relatively short list of thoughtfully sourced organic ingredients and the interesting blend of flavors in this sweet chocolate.
Maker's notes: "Starring sweet, smooth and powerful organic coffee with cashew nuts for creamy taste."
Ingredients: Cacao beans*, Coconut palm sugar*, Cacao butter*, Cashew nuts*, Coconut flakes*, Coffee bean*. (*Organic).
