The NOIR COLLECTION is a set of three chocolate bars that represent three of the best, most sort-after chocolate origins. I do very little to alter these fine chocolates, simply pairing them with the perfect salt to bring out their innate complexities.
Here the tropical, cacao-forward notes of Colombian chocolate pair seamlessly with the clean yet sharp salinity of English Maldon sea salt from the Essex coastline.

SAVOR: This fine coverture chocolate is best enjoyed slowly. Allow the chocolate to warm slightly on the palette before chewing. This releases the chocolate's subtle aromas and complexities.
STORE: The chocolate is best stored either in a wine cellar fridge (16-18c 60%RH) or in the warmest part of a home fridge (top shelf on the door side). It is best enjoyed 6 months from the date of production found at the back of the box.
Once opened, keep away from strong scents, high humidity, and direct sunlight.
NOTE: Temperature fluctuations may cause melting or an appearance of a whitish fat bloom on the bar. Once cooled chocolate taste and texture are unaffected, and it is safe for consumption.
INGREDIENTS: Single Origin 85% Colombia Dark Couverture, Cocoa Mass, Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Emulsifier, Lecithin, Natural Vanilla Flavour, Merlot Salt.
