An unusually dry and cloudy growing season, combined with a mild roast and minimal conching, has produced arguably the most floral edition of To’ak chocolate thus far. This rendition is 100% cacao, without any extra cacao butter or other additives. Pure dark chocolate from the valley of Piedra de Plata.
Flavor Description
Mochaccino, roasted almonds, floralNose: Floral, green olives, fresh wood.
Palate: Roasted almonds, mochaccino, jasmine.
Finish: Perfumed coffee with roasted almonds on top.
Pairing Recommendations
Creamy or nutty cheeses pair beautifully—they serve to neutralize some of the bitterness and bring out the nutty notes. Think mild brie, triple-cremes, and Alpine-style cheeses. For spirits, Zacapa 23 rum is a top choice. Properly aged Cognac or Tequila and a wide range of whiskies will all work well. In the realm of wines, go with a super sweet fortified wine like Pedro Ximenez sherry.
Appellation: Piedra de Plata
Variety: Heirloom Nacional
Fermentation: 4-5 days
Roast: Medium
Conch: None

The goal with Dark was to highlight the emblematic characteristics of Nacional cacao from the Arriba growing region in Ecuador – akin to the French province of Burgundy in the wine world.
The higher cacao percentage, longer fermentation time, and relatively shorter conch time have produced a strongly floral aroma that continues to intermingle with red fruits and earthy notes on the palate.
Nose: Flowers and herbs, trace of nuts.
Palate: Floral, woody, herbal, earthy, berries.
Finish: Long, dark, rich and herbal.

A ROCK SOLID CLASSIC DARK CHOCOLATE
A fruity, complex salted dark chocolate to end all salted dark chocolates. Made with single origin cacao from Zorzal Cacao, a farm and fermentary within a bird sanctuary in the Dominican Republic, and sprinkled with Peruvian pink salt sourced from Salt of The Earth Co. We think New York Magazine said it best: this bar has a “deep, dark, mysterious flavor with hints of cherry; and a finish as long as a David Foster Wallace footnote.”
Origin: Zorzal Cacao, Dominican Republic
