Even before being sold, 80% Criollo Blend by Domori won one of the most prestigious awards in the chocolate world: the gold medal in the dark 80% category of the Academy of Chocolate 2016 Awards. Criollo is a rare and fragile variety of cocoa and represents only 0.001% of the cocoa produced in the world. The quality of this cocoa has no equal being free of tannins, which give the product harshness and astringency. In fact, Criollo boasts a unique creaminess, roundness, and sweetness. Domori has recovered this precious variety of cocoa that risked extinction, giving rise to the largest plantation in the world in Venezuela. From this plantation, they receive the raw material they transform every day through the shortest and purest recipe in the world. This chocolate, produced with 80% cocoa paste of the Criollo variety, is characterized by an extraordinary roundness. On the palate, it offers notes of dried figs, dates, and raisins: the result is a unique bar, with excellent sweetness and roundness.
