A proprietary secret blend so no telling the constituent sources which comprise it. Safe to state, it encompasses several of C-AMARO's single-origins.

Subdued (save for the Texture, a bit off / really taut in the Beta VI+ range) almost to the point of a cancelling effect in some of the merging cacaos. The whole less than the sum of its parts, as though divided up with the remainder confined to some coastal Venzy-like chocolate. Flavor contour-wise so very smooth, ultra-controlled; nary a scintilla of neither bitterness nor astringency. A case of all cocoas lead to Venezuela?

INGREDIENTS: cocoa mass, sugar
