Valrhona Chocolate Abinao 85% 70g bar

In 1986, Valrhona created the world’s most bitter chocolate, instantly setting a new benchmark for the industry. To create Guanaja’sunique flavor, Valrhona formulated a complex blend of the aromatic profiles found in classic cocoas from Trinidad, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Madagascar.

The name Guanaja is a tribute to the first cocoa beans given to the first explorers who landed on Guanaja Island in 1502. Guanaja’s balance and bitterness extend harmoniously into toasted notes of cocoa nibs.

Valrhona shows its appreciation for African cocoas with Abinao. A ‘Mariage de Grands Crus’ from Africa handpicked for a cocoa-intense recipe that gives Abinao its exquisite bitter profile. A unique flavor profile that is a rare sensory delight for people who crave cocoa’s characteristic intense bitterness.

Powerful & Tannin-Rich: Abinao’s very high cocoa content makes this a consistently bitter chocolate with flavorsome tannins and a pure taste of raw beans
