Belize Maya Mountain Usa Dark Fruits/Flowers Belize Hybrid

by Brasstown · Clarendon, Jamaica · rated 4.7/5

This chocolate unfurls like an enigmatic story, beginning with bold notes of burnt ash and raisin that evoke the warmth of a distant campfire, before melting into the earthy umami of mushroom and a whisper of soy. The creamy texture cradles these flavors, while subtle hints of date and butter round out the experience with a comforting richness. Its finish is long and lingering, like the memory of a twilight stroll through ancient ruins.
