70% Semuliki Forest 2024 Høst Uganda 60g, AoC Bronze Award — Tosier Chocolatemaker

That peach note is genuinely there—bright and clean, not artificial. The bar melts slowly and leaves a nutty finish that makes you want another square.

I was skeptical about "peach notes" in chocolate, but this bar delivers—bright and fruity, with a nutty finish that lingers nicely. Knowing it’s from organic smallholder farmers in Western Uganda makes each square feel a bit more meaningful.

The peach note is genuinely there, not just in the description, and it lingers in a really pleasant way after the nutty finish. I've tried a lot of single-origin bars, but this one stands out for how balanced it is. Knowing 52% of the farmers are women makes me feel good about buying it too.
