Full of different beans
Origin Select Chocolate from Barry Callebaut consists of four chocolates, each of them created with cocoa beans from one region. As a result, each chocolate has a different flavour, characterised by the cocoa from that particular region.
Each has a character of its own, which may differ from crop to crop. The four types are:
Arriba is white spicy chocolate based on cocoa butter of cocoa beans from Arriba in Ecuador.
Java is very pale milk chocolate based on East Java cocoa with a caramel taste.
Select Grenade is a dark chocolate with a cocoa content of 60 per cent, based on Grenada cocoa from Venezuela, with a spicy and flowery aroma.
Sao Thom‚ is dark chocolate containing 70 per cent of cocoa, based on Sao Tome cocoa, with a lot of body, it has both fruity and spicy aromas.
Also from Barry Callebaut is Organic Chocolate based on organic raw materials - the BIO range. Control procedures and standards for this type of production are severe and governed by EU regulations.
