White Chocolate Bars
- Soma Roasted White Chocolate Bar (65grs Bar)$14.00When you torch white chocolate... Hot dang, it's good.
Remember the roaring campfires as kids, sparking and popping into the night sky the smell of hot sap in the air. The art of roasting marshmallows is real, roasting it just so without lighting it on fire so that crunchy melty layer can slide off and you can start again.
Relive the moment.

- Soma Guasare, Venezuela 70% (65grs Bar)$22.00"Tasting notes: cream, malt, cacao, coffee, tamarind, figs Origin: Rosario de Perijá, Venezuela
Farms: Finca la Florida, Finca San Antonio, Finca Los Claritos, Finca San Pedro
In the ‘90s on a small farm in the Sierra de Perijá near the Colombian border, cacao agronomist Humberto Reyes, discovered an old pure Criollo named after the Rio Guasare. The seeds traveled to the research centre, Campo Experimental San Juan de Lagunillas in the Andes to be grown & studied. Unlike typical Criollos, scientists found the plants to be very productive, blossoms in 2 years, big hardy fruit with plump white seeds in 3 years.
The cacao in this bar is from 4 farms grown interspersed with bananas & coffee near the town of Rosario, West of Lake Maracaibo. The trees originate from the Andean samples, the finished chocolate loaded with beautiful heritage Criollo flavours. Guasare is more than just cacao, it represents hope & a brighter future for a country presently enveloped in chaos.

Chocolate Maker's Notes: Years ago I found a beautiful cocoa plantation that forever caught my imagination. On this particular day it was overcast and the cocoa trees were new and laden with a rainbow of cocoa pods. It was very peaceful with the exception of the tropical birds chirping and squawking. As the light came through the leaves, I could not help but feel that if there really was a Garden of Eden it would be just like this. Ever since I have wanted to make chocolate with beans from this magical place.
It took seven years. But as they say, good things come to those who wait. I hope that this chocolate is as special for you as it was for me. - Amano Guayas 70% (85grs Bar)$8.95Tasting Notes: Rich chocolate flavor, green bannana, blackberry, smoke, cedar, molasses
Ingredients: Cocoa Beans, Cocoa Butter, Pure Cane Sugar, Whole Vanilla Bean. Product Details: We created this award winning chocolate exclusively with beans from the Guayas River flood-plain in Ecuador. Historically, these cocoa beans have been known as "Arriba" and have long been famous for their fine flavor. Arriba cocoa from Ecuador creates a chocolate that is rich and chocolatey but also very complex in flavor. Its flavor notes are floral and subtly berry notes. They are reminiscent of blackberry, spice and green banana. We created this bar using our hand restored antique machinery and our own touch of love. This chocolate shows the beauty in flavor that can be achieved using Ecuador's especially flavorful cocoa.

The Chocolate Maker's Notes:
Ecuador's native cocoa Nacional has been famous for centuries for its fine flavor. When cocoa traders would come to the port of Guayaquil and ask where the best cocoa was to be found, they would be pointed "Arriba" or up river. I was very happy to find a small group of cocoa plantations up river from Guayaquil that preserve pure Nacional cocoa. I used the cocoa from these plantations to make this beautiful and incredibly flavorful chocolate.
Finding absolutely pure Nacional can be a difficult task. Many cocoa farmers have been talked into replacing their Nacional with a hybrid called CCN-51. CCN-51 has no Ecuadorian genetic roots and is a particularly insidious hybrid that rapidly depletes the soil and is rapidly replacing fine flavored cocoa in the few countries that grow quality cocoa. By ensuring this chocolate is CCN-51 free, we are able to present to you the pure flavor of Ecuador's cocoa and heritage and help preserve fine flavored cocoa.
In addition to the final flavor of this special chocolate, what really makes me proud is that before we released this chocolate to the public or our retailers, I packed up a collection of bars and flew to Guayaquil and traveled up-river to the homes of farmers who grew the cocoa beans we used. There, along with my friends in Ecuador, we threw a party for the farmers with free food and drinks. We shared the chocolate with the very farmers who grew the cocoa. It touches my heart that the farmers were able to taste this chocolate first. It was a beautiful experience seeing the pride that they took in their farms, their trees, their cocoa. The faces of those humble farmers and their beautiful children will always be with me and I can only hope that this chocolate does honor and justice to their hard work and their love for their beautiful cocoa trees. - Amano Artisan Chocolate Madagascar Sambirano Valley 70% Dark$8.95Tasting Notes: Raisin, Light Chocolate Flavor, Citrus, Raspberry (Note, these are natural flavors of the cocoa beans we use and the chocolate -- not added flavors.)
