Origin & Craftsmanship
This bar from Cacao Hunters celebrates cacao from Colombia’s Pimienta region — a locale known for its distinctive terroir and rare heirloom genetics. Cacao Hunters works hand-in-hand with local producers to preserve these unique varieties and elevate their expression through careful bean-to-bar techniques. The result is a chocolate that expresses both place and personality with clarity.

Flavor Profile
At 70% cacao, Pimienta delivers a nuanced and layered experience. You’ll first notice vibrant red fruit and berry notes, followed by gentle floral accents and a rounded cocoa base. There’s a hint of spice character reminiscent of the region’s name — subtle, warm, and intriguing — which unfolds toward the finish before settling into rich, lingering cocoa.

Tasting & Pairing Guide

Let a piece melt slowly on your tongue so the fruit-bright top notes rise first, followed by floral nuance and a smooth cocoa underpinning.
Pair this bar with a medium-bodied red wine like Pinot Noir or Grenache to complement its fruit and spice nuances. For a non-alcoholic option, try a fragrant bergamot-infused black tea or a floral oolong to highlight its aromatic layers. To add texture and depth, enjoy alongside dried cherries or toasted almonds — their natural sweetness and crunch beautifully echo the chocolate’s profile.

Summary

The Pimienta 70% bar from Cacao Hunters is a refined, origin-driven dark chocolate that harmonizes fruit, floral complexity, and gentle spice. It’s a standout choice for chocolate lovers who seek layered character and terroir-rich expression in every bite.

Unsere Schokoladenhersteller verzichten in ihren Produkten stolz auf den Einsatz künstlicher Stabilisatoren oder Konservierungsmittel, wodurch ihre Kreationen im Vergleich zu anderer Premium-Schokolade temperaturempfindlicher sind.

Um ein optimales Geschmackserlebnis zu gewährleisten, empfiehlt es sich, unsere Pralinen an einem kühlen, trockenen Ort bei einer Temperatur zwischen 16 °C und 18 °C aufzubewahren. Bitte vermeiden Sie es, unsere Pralinen im Kühlschrank aufzubewahren, da dies aufgrund der erhöhten Luftfeuchtigkeit zur Zuckerkristallisation führen kann, was ihre Textur und ihren Geschmack verändern kann.

Im Gegenteil: Bei zu hohen Temperaturen kann sich die Kakaobutter trennen und einen weißen Film auf der Oberfläche der Schokolade bilden. Dieser Verlust an Kakaobutter kann dazu führen, dass die Schokolade austrocknet und sich infolgedessen der Geschmack verändert. Durch eine sorgfältige Lagerung können Sie die Integrität unserer köstlichen Schokolade bewahren.
