Bolivia 3 Tribes 70% Dark Chocolate making kit



I get it.  I write these reviews extolling this or that exotic fruit, lingering black tea bitterness and sun dried eye of newt and you ask yourself 1) what is the Alchemist imbibing 2) how you can get some and/or 3) is there is a perfect recipe for getting those flavors.

There is no mistaking the punch of chocolate as soon as you take a bite. I associate that strong and bold presence  with most wild harvested beans, regardless of origin.  There is a really nice soft tang that I almost hesitate to call acidity .  In the roast there was browned butter wafting off and it comes through just a little in the flavor.  It is coupled with a light brown sugar clarity and dried cherry.  Oh, and more chocolate.  It puts me in mind of a gooey, dense fudge cake. 

I can't promise you that you'll get the flavors I've described but I can hand you a recipe and kit where I found this particular bean sings.

In this case, the Bolivia 3 Tribes really shows off its flavors at that often made 70%.  There is a little cocoa butter add to round out the flavor and add to the release of flavors.

Everything is pre-roasted, winnowed, portioned, and measured. No weighing. No prep. Just pour it into your melanger and let the magic happen. By the next day, you’ll have fresh craft chocolate.
