Meybol Cacao - Solo Kakao 90%
Ranked in the Top 100 Chocolates in the World.
Origin & Craftsmanship
This bar from Meybol Cacao is an ultra-pure expression of Peruvian cacao, made with 90% cacao sourced from esteemed fine-flavour regions such as VRAEM and Piura. Staying true to artisanal bean-to-bar principles, Meybol works with carefully fermented, high-quality beans and subtle roasting to preserve the rich character and complexity inherent in the cacao — even at very high percentages.
Flavor Profile
With a bold 90% cacao content, this bar delivers a powerful yet nuanced dark chocolate experience. Initially, you’ll notice deep roasted cocoa supported by subtle molasses and earthy undertones. As it develops on the palate, hints of dark fruit, dried berries, and gentle spice emerge before settling into a long, rich cocoa finish. Despite its intensity, the chocolate remains balanced and expressive, not simply bitter — a testament to the quality of the beans and Meyer’s careful craft.
Tasting & Pairing Guide
Let a small piece melt slowly on your tongue so the dense cocoa foundation unfolds first, followed by layered fruit and earthy nuances.
Pair this bar with a full-bodied red wine like Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah to match its intensity, or a robust espresso to highlight its deep cocoa profile. For a non-alcoholic option, a smoky black tea or roasted oolong accentuates the bar’s complex aromatics. For texture and flavour contrast, try toasted walnuts or dried tart cherries — both echo the chocolate’s dark fruit and depth.
Summary
The Solo Kakao 90% bar from Meybol Cacao is a bold, origin-driven chocolate with extraordinary depth and complexity. It showcases Peruvian cacao at near-pure intensity, blending earthy, fruity, and roasted elements into a refined, lingering finish — perfect for lovers of deep, expressive dark chocolate.
We ship award-winning craft chocolate from our warehouse in Saint John, New Brunswick to more than fifty countries. Rates, transit times and free-shipping thresholds for every destination are below.
How We Protect Chocolate in Transit
Fine chocolate is temperature-sensitive by nature. We pack according to the forecast along the actual route, not the season on the calendar.
25–30°C (77–86°F) — insulated packaging
30–35°C (86–95°F) — double insulation with an ice pack
35–40°C (95–104°F) — double insulation with ice packs
Above 40°C (104°F) — the shipment may be held until conditions improve
We ship Monday to Thursday so nothing sits in a weekend warehouse, and a business delivery address gives chocolate a better chance than a doorstep in August. These measures reduce risk substantially. They do not eliminate it — in sustained heat, softening can still occur in transit.
Estimated Delivery Times
Every timeframe shown in the table, at checkout, or in a shipping confirmation is an estimate. Actual transit varies with destination, customs clearance and carrier operations, and peak periods and public holidays in either country affect it further. We dispatch promptly, but once a parcel is with the carrier we have little control over its progress, and we can't guarantee a delivery date.
Customs and Duties
Duties, import taxes and local handling fees are set by the destination country and are the responsibility of the recipient. They are not included in our shipping charge. Where a destination has a specific requirement, it's noted alongside that destination's rate.
If a carrier asks you for information to complete clearance, respond promptly. Parcels held for unanswered customs queries are usually returned or destroyed, and we can't recover them.
Orders With Pre-Order Items
An order that mixes in-stock and pre-order items ships complete, once every item has arrived. This avoids a second shipping charge. The expected date for a pre-order item appears on its product page and in your order confirmation, and you'll be emailed when the full order ships.
If you want the in-stock items sooner, place two separate orders. Pre-order items can't be expedited.
Damage, Melting and Delays
We don't refund or replace orders for melting, carrier delays, or customs-related outcomes. Our pricing reflects the protective packaging included in every order rather than a margin held back to cover weather.
If something arrives genuinely damaged, write to us within seven days with photographs of the parcel and its contents and we'll look at it.
Delivery to Specific Countries

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.
To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.
On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
