Bonnat's Cacao Real del Xoconuzco 75% Dark Chocolate is a remarkable single-origin bar crafted from the ancient Xoconuzco cacao of Mexico—the first cacao known to have been cultivated by humans near the Izapa pyramid. Historically reserved for the emperors of pre-Columbian civilizations, this rare cacao offers a complex flavor profile featuring buttery, earthy, woody, fruity, and vanilla notes. Handcrafted by Maison Bonnat, renowned for its dedication to traditional chocolate-making since 1884, this bar exemplifies the artistry and heritage of fine French chocolatiers. Notably, it was awarded Bronze at the International Chocolate Awards 2021 in the Plain/Origin Dark Chocolate Bars category.
