Valrhona's own description of this chocolate bar:
On the Caribbean island of Trinidad, on the Gran Couva domaine (San Juan Estate), grow cocoa beans that are among the world's finest:Trinitarios. Starting with the finest lots that the estate produces, we have selected cocoa beans that promise the greatest aromatic pleasure. Only a limited quantity is available. A taste that is round, balanced, not agressive. An initial sensation in the mouth that is all gentleness, a powerful increase in the aromas of roasted almonds and hazelnuts. A note of spices.
