Ambanja, Madagascar 70%

These beans come from the Akesson farm in Madagascar. Bertil Akesson, the farm’s owner, dries these beans for Dandelion with a special method that retains the acidity, resulting in a strong, fruity punch. People often ask how fruit flavors get added to the bar when, in fact, these are actually the unique characteristics of the bean coming through.

Every harvest brings new flavors and this year we taste a combination of citrus and tangy red fruits — like strawberries, raspberry jam and citrus — in this delicious Dandelion Ambanja Madagascar chocolate bar.
