72% Extra dark chocolate flakes | Peru

I’d been skeptical of flaked chocolate, but these melt so evenly that I ended up sprinkling them over morning yogurt—the San Martín beans give a deep, earthy bitterness that isn’t harsh at all. That Great Taste Award makes sense now.

The 2021 Great Taste win made me curious, and it absolutely earns that nod—the San Martín cacao gives it a deep, earthy bitterness that’s surprisingly smooth on the finish. I keep a bag by my desk for a square after lunch, and the flake form makes it dangerously easy to snack on.

The flakes melt almost instantly on the tongue, and that single-origin Peru bean gives it a smooth, earthy depth without any bitterness. I've been breaking off a few pieces after dinner and it's the perfect little treat.
