Gaston Chocolat – 70% Raw

$10.95

A rich dark chocolate made using the best cocoa beans grown in Vanuatu. This bar is made with, well sterilised, unroasted cacao (we prefer the term unroasted to raw as some people attached a specific temperature definition of “raw” food – chocolate exceeds that temperature in the process of stone grinding). It takes a lot of work to find beans which work really well as unroasted chocolate – they need to be really well fermented and dried, meticulously clean.  Olivier and the team have such close working relationships with their cacao partners that this is possible and they found a great bean to make this bar. Already winning awards on the world stage it’s time you tried an unroasted bar even in you’re not into “raw” food.

Awards: 2021 Academy of Chocolate awards Silver, International Chocolate Awards, Silver 2020.
