53% Waslala Dark Milk Chocolate, Single-Origin Nicaragua
Black Currant / Malt / Brown Sugar / Umami
Our 53% Waslala Dark Milk is made with single-origin cocoa beans from the remote Waslala region within the central highlands of Nicaragua. Few paved roads connect the country’s second-largest city, Matagalpa, to Waslala, making the journey difficult and long. Brix tests ensure optimum ripeness is reached at harvest to deliver consistently high-quality cocoa beans. The fresh beans then undergo a specific fermentation process to meet our characteristic preferences. The resulting 53% Waslala Dark Milk strikes a nuanced and expressive balance between dark and milk chocolate.
