73% Single Estate Vila Gracinda Dark Chocolate Bar – Volcanic & Oceanic Notes from the Island of Chocolate
Experience the bold, aromatic complexity of Cluizel’s 73% Single Estate Vila Gracinda Dark Chocolate Bar, crafted from cocoa grown on the volcanic soils of Sao Tomé in the Gulf of Guinea. This premium dark chocolate bar delivers a rare balance of spicy and herbaceous tropical fruits, licorice stick, and unique volcanic and marine notes—a direct reflection of its exceptional terroir.
Cultivated on the Vila Gracinda Plantation, nestled between equatorial rains and the Atlantic Ocean, these cocoa beans absorb the essence of mineral-rich volcanic soil and iodine-rich sea spray. Known as “the island of chocolate,” Sao Tomé produces some of the world’s most aromatic cocoa, making this Single Estate chocolate a must for dark chocolate lovers who crave depth, origin, and authenticity.
