Origin & Craft
Crafted by SLOK, this drinking chocolate is made with cacao from Thailand. Developed for water-based preparation, the powder is designed to deliver clarity and brightness, allowing fruit-driven notes to remain vivid without dairy.

Flavor Profile
Lively and tropical. Bright citrus leads, followed by creamy guanabana and the delicate, refreshing sweetness of dragon fruit, creating a clean and aromatic finish.

Tasting & Pairing Guide
Water-based ratio: 1 part chocolate powder : 3 parts water

Standard Method
Heat milk (or water) until steaming. Use a frother or whisk to combine the cacao powder with the liquid until fully dissolved. A small dash of whisky may be added for extra complexity.

Express Method
Place the chocolate powder in a suitable heat-resistant bottle.
Add 80 °C liquid (do not exceed 60% full).
Shake 10–15 times, or until completely melted.

Iced Chocolate
Follow the express method using 60% hot liquid, then add 40% ice and shake again for 10–15 times.

Summary
A fruit-forward 70% hot chocolate with a distinctly tropical character. The Thailand expression offers brightness, freshness, and a modern drinking-chocolate experience designed for water-based preparation.

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.

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.
