Lucid Chocolatier | 56% Milk - Hazelnut & Yuzu

A very smooth, 56% high cocoa content milk chocolate with an elegant citrus burst

An explorative approach to the classic citrus and milk chocolate; and also Lucid Chocolatier's darkest, fruitiest milk chocolate. (High cocoa content milk chocolate is a marvellous thing.)

Smooth milk chocolate from the rare Piura Blanco cocoa bean, paired in harmony with New Zealand grown Hazelnuts from Canterbury, Yuzu from Levin and Bergamot from Italy. 

What are Piura Blanco beans?

This ultra-rare white cocoa bean was discovered in 2007 in the Piura river valley of Northern Peru. Due to its lively fruit flavours, it has become one of the best-awarded beans worldwide. Cacao genetic experts believe that the Piura Blanco is an “albino” of a native cacao, and is a form of the rarest and most delicate bean type - the Criollo.

Small batch bean to bar chocolate, lovingly made in New Zealand.
