DUTCH LEMON TWIST WHITE 37%

Fresh Summer

 

Perfect summer in a bar: a playful white with a lemon twist at the end

With this bar we celebrate the Dutch invention of the cacao butter press by Coenraad Johannes van Houten back in 1828. Initially this press was created to make powder for drinking chocolate. A century later used for pressing cacao for its butter to make white chocolate.

The Dutch Original White bar is made of natural cacao butter from Ecuador. The creamy and hearty Dutch cow milk accentuates the natural cacao butter and provides for an extra layer of flavour depth. As a finishing touch we added the fresh taste of Spanish lemon and real quality vanilla from Madagascar.


TASTING NOTES

Full cream butter, nuts, lemon and vanilla.

HACIENDA VICTORIA ESTATE

Thanks to the reforestation the gentle savanna hills – rolling from the Andes Mountains towards the Ecuadorian coast – can now also harbour cacao plantations again.

Hacienda Victoria is named after the wife of the founder, Carlos Eduardo García Fuentes, who bought the estate back in 2009. Some of the best professionals in the agricultural sciences were involved to undertake the study of soils. Agreements were established with the National Institute of Agricultural Research (INIAP) in order to guarantee the delivery of Arriba certified seeds. Hacienda Victoria traditionally grows pure Arriba cacao, which is the ancient cacao variety of Ecuador. The latest addition is the La Perla variety. The farm works in a sustainable and socially responsible way certified by the Rainforest Alliance.

ONE BAR FOR NOW, ONE BAR FOR LATER

Each Heinde & Verre box contains 2 bars, one bar for now, one for later. At Heinde & Verre we take chocolate and your enjoyment very serious. Quality chocolate needs to be protected so we have developed the perfect packaging to preserve all the natural flavours. A kraft pouch protects against light, humidity, dust and dirt. A double air tight seal protects against odours. We have extracted part of the air to reduce oxidisation and moisture.
