Definite Chocolate Coffee & Sea Salt 65% Dark Chocolate Bar

50 g bar - Dominican Republic

Chocolate and coffee are natural partners, but this bar makes the pairing feel especially rooted in the Dominican Republic.

Definite Chocolate starts with 65% dark chocolate made from organic cacao sourced from Finca Elvesia, then adds specialty coffee beans from Casa Barista, a single-origin coffee roaster in Santo Domingo, and a touch of sea salt. The coffee deepens the chocolate’s roasted character without overpowering it, while the salt brings the flavors into sharper focus.

Look for notes of dried fruit, caramel, and nuts beneath the coffee, with a balanced sweetness and a pleasantly lingering finish. At 65%, the chocolate has enough cacao intensity to stand up to the coffee while remaining smooth and approachable.

The cacao comes from Finca Elvesia in Hato Mayor, a historic estate established by a Swiss immigrant family in the late 19th century. The plantation became one of the most important cacao estates in the Caribbean and was once connected to the port at Caño Hondo by its own railway system. Today, the farm continues to produce distinctive Dominican cacao from more than 150 hectares of rolling agricultural land.

The bar earned a Silver Award from the Academy of Chocolate in 2020.
