Description

About this product:

Introducing our pure chocolate bar, made with only two ingredients - cacao beans and unrefined cane sugar (panela). This premium chocolate is a true indulgence, with a rich, velvety texture and a deep, complex flavor that's unlike anything else on the market.

But what truly sets our chocolate apart is the way we source our ingredients. We work with over 400 small farmers in Colombia who were hit by war and live in poverty. By paying them higher prices and supporting them through our Responsible Chocolate movement, we're not just making a delicious product - we're also making a difference in the lives of the people who grow our cacao.

We're also proud to be the only company in the UK making chocolate from the fruit itself. This unique process allows us to produce the highest quality chocolate without the need for extra cocoa butter or other additives, resulting in a pure and uncompromising chocolate experience that's second to none.

So whether you're a true chocolate aficionado or simply looking for a guilt-free indulgence, our pure chocolate bar is the perfect choice. With its rich flavor, pure ingredients, and commitment to social responsibility, it's a chocolate experience you can feel good about.

Made with only 2 ingredients: high quality and totally traced cacao beans and unrefined cane sugar. We profoundly believe the chocolate industry does not need to add extra cocoa butter to hide off flavors derived from poor traceability or post-harvest control.
The finest genetics: the trees that produce the beans used in this chocolate are all creole hybrids, the finest genetics which grow in isolated areas affected by war in Colombia. Less than 2% of the cacao tree population in the world comes from this variety.
Complex sensory experience: tasting notes of raisins, blueberries, nuts and vanilla.
Full of real social impact: Juvenal Castro is the chosen hero for this bar. His path from struggle to triumph motivates others to keep pushing forward always.
Net weight: 65g - 2.3 oz. per bar.

Not good chocolate

Highly recommended

Beautiful and smooth. Thank you. Will be back soon to try more. Very artisan and pure.

WOW!

This 70% bar tasted really good and I loved it only has 2 ingredients. I also loved the packaging and the little band it has on top of it. The social impact this brand seems to have in their producing country (Colombia) is deeper and really sustainable. I have never been there but I know of the poverty and difficulties they have.

Perfection

I'm a regular consumer of dark chocolate, so I was excited to try two different types of Juan Choconat, the 85%, and this 70%. Typically 85% is more my speed, but with the limited ingredients of this variety, it makes it taste darker than it actually is, and I actually prefer the 70%. The texture has a nice snap to it at first, and melts nicely on the tongue. It's a perfect every day chocolate fix, and antioxidant boost. The closure is cool too, with a roll down type clasp that you'd find on a bag of coffee.

A very good chocolate without all the additives

I am a huge chocolate lover and was very curious about this Juan Choconat Dark Chocolate (70% Cacao) Premium Non-GMO Organic Dark Chocolate from Colombia. Based on the description, it is clear that it is not the usual chocolate given that no cocoa butter has been added.

It seems like the creator of this chocolate really wanted to concentrate on the flavor of the cacao bean itself and I have to say that he did a really good job.

The Juan Choconat chocolate is definitely dryer that what I am used to but I actually like it as I get to really taste the cacao which was strong but very pleasant.

Overall, this is a very nice chocolate, it might not be for everyone but I really enjoyed it and will give it a solid 5 stars.
