Fine Dark Chocolate
Argencove - Mombacho, 70%
Top Dark Chocolate 2024
Origin & Craftsmanship
This bar is crafted by Argencove in Nicaragua, sourced from cacao grown on the slopes of the Mombacho Volcano near Granada, where diverse micro-climates yield richly flavoured beans. The brand manages the full bean-to-bar process locally — from fermentation to drying to manufacturing — which gives the final bar a unique sense of place and purpose.
Flavor Profile
This dark chocolate (70% cacao content) delivers a slow-melt experience and rich complexity: notes of ripe fruits, raisins and cranberries, a peppery body that adds gentle spice, and a finish of blackberry and warm roast.The balance strikes between fruit, subtle heat, and deep cocoa.
Tasting & Pairing Guide
Let a piece rest on your tongue, allowing the fruity top notes to emerge first (raisins, cranberry), followed by the peppery mid-palate, and then the deeper roast and berry-black finish. Pair this bar with a bold red wine (such as a Shiraz or Malbec) to match its peppery and dark-berry character. For a non-alcoholic option, try a black tea with berry or spice accents, or an earthy coffee to complement the roast and cocoa depth. For texture contrast, enjoy with dried dark cherries or toasted pecans, which mirror the bar’s flavour progression.
Summary
The Mombacho 70% bar from Argencove is a terroir-driven chocolate with character: Nicaraguan-grown cacao, artisan production, and a flavour profile that blends fruit, spice and deep cocoa. Ideal for dark-chocolate lovers looking for complexity, story and origin in each bite.

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.
To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.
On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
