TOUR THE INVITING WORLD OF DARK CHOCOLATE For the truly discerning and adventurous, Pierre Marcolini created the World Flavors assortment as a way to experience chocolate from various regions of the world. Perhaps you can tell the tannins from the oaks in a glass of cabernet, but can your palate distinguish Venezuelan from Ecuadorean chocolate? Just as with wine, the region that the cocoa bean originates from will create a different taste in that chocolate. Each piece in this collection has a cocoa content of 75% and is made from the fermented bean entirely in Pierre's workshop in Brussels. Take a tour and experience the taste of seven of the world's finest cocoa regions: Ecuador, Java, Madagascar, Venezuela, Ghana, Trinidad and Chuao. Educational and intoxicating as any bottle of red. |
