The World's Best Dark Chocolate 2025

Origin & Craftsmanship
This bar is made by Cacaosuyo in Peru, using the prized Porcelana and native cacao varieties from the Piura region. It reflects true bean-to-bar craftsmanship with direct sourcing and careful fermentation and drying practices in the field.

Flavor Profile
Expect thrilling clarity and complexity from this 70% dark chocolate: vibrant citrus and red-fruit notes open the experience, followed by honeyed sweetness and malt undertones, finishing with a clean, elegant cocoa richness.

Award & Recognition
In 2025, this bar was crowned “Best Dark Chocolate in the World” by the International Chocolate Awards — a testament to its outstanding quality and flavour expression. 

Tasting & Pairing Guide

Allow a square to dissolve slowly on your tongue so the fruity brightness and honeyed mid-palate emerge before the deep cocoa back-note settles. Pair with a lively, fruit-forward red wine such as a young Pinot Noir or light Malbec to mirror the citrus and red-fruit hints. For a non-alcoholic option, try a floral herbal tea (like rooibos or jasmine). For the snacking side, toasted hazelnuts or almond biscotti bring out the cocoa’s rich subtle nut tones and enhance texture.

Summary

The Piura Select 70% bar by Cacaosuyo is a benchmark example of origin-driven dark chocolate — rare beans, disciplined craftsmanship, and global recognition. If you're seeking a standout dark chocolate with both depth and finesse, this bar delivers on every front.

Keep in a cool, dry place, away from direct light and strong odors. Store at maximum
18 ° C in its original packaging

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.
