This chocolate bar is created from Trinitario cocoa from the Dominican Republic. Exuding flavours of yellow fruit with notes of roasted almonds. An extremely fruity and long lasting character chocolate and certain to be a hit with all Valrhona chocolate lovers.
Valrhona, a French master chocolate maker..
Since 1922 the vocation of Valrhona has been to create exceptional gourmet chocolate, while respecting the artisan's know-how and fine French taste. Dedicated to quality, Valrhona selects and purchases its cocoa beans directly from choice plantations, thus securing an exclusive supply of Grand Crus from South America, the Pacific Ocean and the Caribbean. Valrhona was one of the first chocolatiers to describe their chocolate in a similar fashion to wine with the labelling of such creations as grand cru, single origin, single estate and even vintage chocolate. Valrhona is regarded as being amongst the best of the few french chocolate makers today creating their chocolate from bean to bar (cacaofevier).

After receiving a box of Grand Crus tasting squares as a gift, each of which was equally enjoyable, I'm converted to fine chocolate. I particularly enjoyed this Tainori bar - not too high a cocoa content (for someone with a sweet tooth), and so full of flavour. I'm now looking forward to trying other bars in the Valrhona range.
