Michel Cluizel
Michel Cluizel has a series with delicious single origin chocolates.
Mangaro is made with cacao beans from Madagascar and has the typical fruity flavor notes from that country, especially citrus, but also a hint of honey. Maralumi is made with cacao beans from Papua New Guinea and has strong fruity flavor notes of raisins, red currants and tobacco. Los Ancones is made with cacao beans from the Dominical Republic, and has also flavor of dried fruits like raisins and plums. Tamarina is made with cacao beans from Sao Tome and has a very rich and complex flavor.
Michel Cluizel won Academy of Chocolate’s gold award 2006 for Michel Cluizel Maralumi in the category “Best bean to bar”, silver for Michel Cluizel Mangaro, and bronze for Michel Cluizel Tamarina.
Michel Cluizel has also a number of other products, for information see their website.
