Ghana Kome -Three Mountains Brewing Cacao

Brewing Cacao isn’t chocolate, and it doesn’t behave like chocolate — but the bean is the same, and the story starts in the same place. The flavor notes you’ll see below come from the chocolate this origin produces, and they’re a useful window into the personality of the bean itself: its fruit, depth, acidity, and all the little quirks that make it interesting.

Just keep in mind that brewed cacao brings those traits forward differently. So treat the notes below as a compass, not a contract. They point you toward what this origin can offer — the real fun is discovering how it expresses itself when you brew it.

The aroma is bold chocolate and sweet, rich dates. The flavor explodes with unabashed fudge, just chocolate that keep on going. There are dates in the taste along with very slightly tart tamarind. Unlike the first time we had this, the bitterness and astringency are quite low and simply support the chocolate flavor. In all honesty, there is not a ton of complexity here, but oh there is chocolate, fudge and more chocolate that is rich, deep and satisfying. There may or may not be vanilla in there or I might be simply projecting a past memory of this kind of rich profile.

The profile ends with a clean earthiness that also contains hints of leather and prune supporting the previous structure and body. Overall this is simply a bold delight.

This is a very forgiving origin and a good one to start with and will go well in light milk chocolate all the way to brooding dark chocolates.
