Foundry Ea Kar Dak Lak Vietnam 70% Dark Chocolate
It is not until you eat award winning chocolate like this Foundry Vietnam Dark Chocolate that you realise how good it can be. Foundry Chocolate, made in New Zealand, is a multi award winning chocolatier, where the chocolate is made with just two ingredients...cacao beans and organic cane sugar.
But each bar is made with cacao beans just from a particular plantation. And the difference in flavour between the bars is phenomenal. Blows your mind. Wonderful flavours, too, along with a lovely smooth chocolate. All extracted in some magical way from the cocoa beans.
With this Vietnam bar, the cacao beans come from the Ea Kar Agricultural Cooperative, in a Vietnamese district called Dak Lak Central Highlands. Ea Kar is one of a series of contiguous high plateaus that border the lower part of Laos and northeastern Cambodia. All plateaus are surrounded by high mountain ranges, with many waterfalls and lakes.
Farms in this area tend to be small and family owned, where a variety of crops are grown, including coffee, cacao, pepper, mulberry, and tea. Since the families formed the cooperative, they have been able to reinvest in machinery, equipment and apply technology to produce, ferment and process high quality cacao beans.
This Ea Kar Vietnam chocolate teases your tastebuds with suggestions of silky creme brulee, buttery toffee, and delicate woody spices. Yum!
Now you can eat chocolate like you would drink a fine wine, tasting different flavours and maybe finding aromas and characters your unique senses pick up. And know that you are supporting small villages around the world, paying fair trade prices for their produce.
