Qantu Peru Junin 70% cacao

The initial taste is quite flavorful and fruity. The palette runs from citrus to rum raisin, with some buttery texture along the way. The bitterness is low and the aftertaste tapers off quickly. 9.4

The label of the Qantu bar provides a pictorial summation of the chocolate making process: Going from the cacao pod to drying, inspection, roasting, grinding, and tempering.

Also of note on the label is the Gold award from the Academy of Chocolate for 2019. Well deserved!
