Lachua Dark Milk Dark Chocolate These neighbouring family farms work

These neighbouring family farms work contiguous patches of land and team up together to send the beans to Sirene with a caramel-y fudge richness

Where a cocoa bean grew up has a huge impact on the flavour of the chocolate it turns into

This dark milk bar uses cardamom grown in the same region as the beans

Giff Laube has painstakingly tracked down many criollo from backyards or neglected plots of land and his orchard in Nicaragua is growing DNA confirmed trees producing beans with a mild and really interesting nutty flavour (but no nuts are in there for those of you with nut allergies)

Milk bar ingredients: organic cocoa beans

Lachua Dark Milk Dark Chocolate These neighbouring family farms workLets be clear: This is not milk chocolate, it is dark chocolate with milk added as a seasoning. So, while the milk adds a delicious creamy texture, it is the beans that steal the show. Rich Maple caramel notes on this beautiful bean from Lachua, Guatemala.
