Ambohimena Chocolate 70% 60g

Single-Origin Madagascar Organic Dark Chocolate Bean-to-Bar Tablet The Avanaa Limited Edition Ambohimena 70% brings an expressive fruit profile and single-origin terroir expression to specialty dark chocolate selections, developed to highlight single-estate Madagascar cacao genetics. Crafted bean-to-bar in Montreal, this 60 g limited-run tablet uses certified organic cacao beans sourced directly from the Sambirano Valley, an area characterized by mineral-rich volcanic soil and microclimates influenced by surrounding ylang-ylang groves. The small-batch roast and conch process yields a smooth, uniform snap that releases distinct tasting notes of Concord grape and dried prune alongside bright, natural citric acidity. This unadulterated dark chocolate showcases a clean three-ingredient formulation that emphasizes native bean aromatics without vanilla additives or soy lecithin emulsifiers. Moving away from industrial bulk dark chocolate that relies on excessive alkalization and high sugar concentrations, this craft formulation preserves heat-sensitive polyphenols and regional tasting characteristics. The compact sealed envelope packaging preserves volatile aromatic oils and protects surface temper from moisture, making it an exceptional item for curated tasting flights, wine pairings, and gourmet gifting.
