Ranked in the Best Chocolate of 2024

Origin & Craft
Crafted by SLOK, this single-origin bar is made with cacao from Piura, located on Peru’s northern desert coast. Unlike jungle-grown cacao, Piura’s dry, arid landscape shapes a distinct genetic profile: the beans are a mix of native Criollo types and typically contain around 30% white beans.
With fewer natural predators, the trees develop lower tannin levels, resulting in a cacao known historically—since the 15th and 16th centuries—as a source of premium quality. This environment gives the chocolate an uncommon lightness and delicacy.

Flavor Profile
Bright and elegant. Citrus notes lead with freshness, followed by soft orange blossom. A subtle, lingering floral finish adds finesse and balance.

Tasting & Pairing Guide
Allow the chocolate to melt slowly to appreciate its gentle progression and refined texture. Best enjoyed on its own, or paired with water or lightly brewed tea to preserve its aromatic clarity.

Summary
A delicate 71% dark chocolate that highlights the unique character of Piura cacao. Light, floral, and citrus-driven, this bar offers a refined expression shaped by Peru’s desert terroir.

Summary
A refined 72% dark chocolate made with rare Chuncho cacao from Urubamba. Mellow fruit sweetness, floral aromatics, and a rounded profile define this elegant expression of Peruvian cacao.

This brand appeals to individuals who are not afraid innovative chocolate experiences. SLOK boldly combines premium bean-to-bar chocolate with classic Asian tastes, delivering a culinary journey similar to a Michelin-starred NOMA-like adventure. For those seeking a more traditional flavor profile and hesitant to be too adventurous to try such offerings like duck liver or Hokkaido dried scallop chocolate, the brand also offers one of the best and rare selections of award-winning plain dark chocolate bars and very limited releases of single-origin hot chocolate. Their Peru Chucho 72%, named the world's best hot chocolate of 2024 by the International Chocolate Awards, is one of those very exclusive experiences for those who know their food, wine, and, of course, chocolate.

Sporting a plump sloth as its mascot, Slok Chocolate epitomizes a philosophy deeply rooted in the slow food movement. Its single-origin chocolate bars embrace simplicity, crafted solely from two ingredients: cacao and organic sugar, devoid of any added lecithin or vanilla.

The current selection includes bars sourced from Ecuador, the Philippines, Brazil, India, and Vietnam.

This brand also attracts individuals unafraid of innovative culinary experiences. SLOK boldly but thoughtfully merges premium bean-to-bar chocolate with traditional Asian flavors, offering a gastronomic voyage reminiscent of a Michelin-starred NOMA-like experience, like duck liver or Hokkaido dried scallop chocolate.

Unsere Schokoladenhersteller verzichten in ihren Produkten stolz auf den Einsatz künstlicher Stabilisatoren oder Konservierungsmittel, wodurch ihre Kreationen im Vergleich zu anderer Premium-Schokolade temperaturempfindlicher sind.

Um ein optimales Geschmackserlebnis zu gewährleisten, empfiehlt es sich, unsere Pralinen an einem kühlen, trockenen Ort bei einer Temperatur zwischen 16 °C und 18 °C aufzubewahren. Bitte vermeiden Sie es, unsere Pralinen im Kühlschrank aufzubewahren, da dies aufgrund der erhöhten Luftfeuchtigkeit zur Zuckerkristallisation führen kann, was ihre Textur und ihren Geschmack verändern kann.

Im Gegenteil: Bei zu hohen Temperaturen kann sich die Kakaobutter trennen und einen weißen Film auf der Oberfläche der Schokolade bilden. Dieser Verlust an Kakaobutter kann dazu führen, dass die Schokolade austrocknet und sich infolgedessen der Geschmack verändert. Durch eine sorgfältige Lagerung können Sie die Integrität unserer köstlichen Schokolade bewahren.
