Giants of the Mist - Uganda 75%

Bonnat Chocolate – Géants des Brumes – Uganda 75%

The exclusive Bonnat Gèants des Brumes chocolate is one of four bars from the Collection Particuliere, whose cocoa beans could be considered collector's beans due to their rarity and are reserved for only a few selected specialist retailers. This chocolate bar is a dark Grand Cru chocolate with 75% pure single origin cocoa.

The cocoa for this special chocolate comes from Uganda, the Pearl of Africa. There, Stephane Bonnat discovered this shimmering cocoa like a hidden treasure. In lush green, almost untouched nature, which lines the steep foothills of the mountains surrounding the impenetrable jungle where gorillas live, this intense, sweet cocoa grows. With its floral notes and surprising aromas of fresh melon, the Géants des Brumes chocolate bar provides an unforgettable taste experience.

Bonnat Géants des Brumes chocolate is available in limited quantities only - severely limited.

The 100g chocolate bar is produced by Chocolat Bonnat, based in Voiron, France since 1884. The fine Bonnat Géants des Brumes chocolate is neither too thick nor too thin, it has a good bite and a long-lasting melt, a crisp dark chocolate with a fine cocoa flavor.

The taste universe of Bonnat

The Bonnat company was founded in 1884 and is still operating in its 4th generation at the old address in Voiron in the Isère Valley. It imports the cocoa beans itself, carefully selected from 8 different growing regions. To do this, Stephane Bonnat travels all over the world and buys directly from small plantations or cocoa farmers. The already fermented beans are first gently roasted and then conched (i.e., "kneaded thoroughly") in a process lasting about 20 hours. From the rather dry beans, a thick liquid mass is created by releasing the cocoa butter. In industrial production, cocoa varieties from various growing areas are then mixed until the desired taste is achieved. Bonnat refrains from doing exactly that.

Like no other, he manages to bring out and make taste the typical characteristics of the respective cocoa bean from the respective growing region and even the particularities of the harvest year (influence of the weather). Similar to a good wine, the chocolate thus shows its origin, its terroir. Bonnat was the first to give their chocolates technical terms from the world of fine wines, such as Origin or Grand Cru. But also the bars with cocoa beans from different growing areas, like this Chocolat au Lait, are balanced and rounded, simply well composed from what nature gives Stephane Bonnat.

For the production of chocolate, Chocolat Bonnat only uses cocoa, cocoa butter, and sugar. Foreign substances and emulsifiers play no role in the production process of the Bonnat family, in contrast to many "large" brands. Which region is your favorite?
