For all true chocolate lovers

Criollo, Forastero, Trinitario… Since 1988, Richart has been one of the first chocolate makers to defend the concept of a single origin cocoa by creating a collection of plain chocolates for all tasting aesthetes.

Here are some examples of some tasting notes on 11 cocoa vintages from different botanical and geographical origins, coming from the best production areas, with 70% to 100% of cocoa. These vintages are or have been featured in the RICHART “Around the world” each one revealing through tasting the whole strength and ardor of the selected cocoas as well as the delicacy of the aromas, perfectly emphasized by a subtle making process.
