Solkiki Cherryleaf Tea & Sakura Blossom 65% dark milk

Description

This special batch is stoneground with cherryleaf tea. An ume vinegar, salt-fermented cherry blossom adds a finishing flourish of sakura seduction. For flavour think green tea, but with a hint of cherry. Solkiki wanted to see how it paired with their Palo Blanco cacao and found it was a perfect match. Their initial first batch turned into an extra batch due to its popularity.  Then another batch, then another…

The base chocolate is multi-award winning 65% coconut dark milk chocolate made with Gran Palo Blanco cacao from Piura, Peru. This chocolate has natural malty and chocolatey notes and a hint of stoned fruits like plum. The light fruity acidity helps balance out the flavours. It is made with coconut milk to soften the bar, but not overwhelmingly so, the coconut is very understated.
