Dark Milk Hojicha Chocolate with Timut Pepper: Depth and Subtlety of Flavour

We present a gourmet experience that moves beyond the boundaries of traditional milk chocolate. Our goal was to create a chocolate dominated by the depth of quality cocoa, rather than sweetness, complemented by unique notes of tea and spice.

Dark Milk: Deeper Than the Standard
This chocolate is not your typical "milk" bar. We use a significantly higher cacao content and less milk powder compared to standard milk chocolates. This gives it a dark, rich foundation, allowing the subtler flavours of Hojicha and Timut pepper to shine through.

Hojicha: Caramel, Nuts, and Calm Energy
The heart of the chocolate is roasted Japanese Hojicha tea. Made from tea stems and roasted extensively, Hojicha offers:

Low caffeine content, making the chocolate enjoyable at any time of day.

Warm, easily recognizable caramel and nutty flavour that pairs perfectly with the dark cacao tones.

Timut Pepper: Grapefruit Zest
The unique accent in the flavour palette comes from Nepalese Timut pepper. This pepper, carrying a subtle heat, introduces an unexpected citrusy, sharp grapefruit nuance that acts as a perfect contrast to the sweetness of Hojicha and the richness of the cacao.

The Result: A complex, creamy, yet profound and not overly sweet chocolate, inviting you to savour every piece. 

In the chocolate-making process, we do not use lecithin, which may lead to the presence of air bubbles and cocoa butter streaks in the bars.
