Domori | Venezuela - Sur Del Lago - Dark 70%
If I had to pick a favourite brand in the world it is Domori from the chocolate capital of Italy - Turin!
Venezuela, arguably the world capital of fine cocoa. And this chocolate from Domori is delicate and very fresh aroma with notes of almonds and coffee. Low acidity and astringency, fine, pronounced elegance and great persistence that lingers.
This exquisite flavour is made from just two ingredients: cacao mass and a little sugar.
Block Size: 50g
We are in Venezuela, the world capital of high quality cacao. Here, too, hybridization has taken place over the centuries, but the aromatic profile of Venezuelan cacao leaves no room for doubt: here, among the notes of fruit and nuts, the aftertaste of chocolate reigns supreme. Here, every valley from Chuao to Cuyagua has its own reputation and heritage, in a genetic labyrinth strongly marked by Criollo.
The deserts and spectacular dunes in the Falcon area, the great lakes and the peaks of the Andes forge an unequalled aromatic complexity. In these lands, in the state of Sucre, in 2000 Domori set up a partnership with the historic Franceschi family from the Hacienda San Josè, which has been working in the territory since 1830.
This collaboration allowed Domori to select the hybrids that make up Sur del Lago cacao, from the plantations surrounding Lake Maracaibo.
TIMING: We don't believe anyone should wait too long for chocolate and aim to have your chocolate packaged and shipped within 1-2 business days. The sooner the better as far as we're concerned :)
SHIPPING TIMES: Standard shipping typically takes between 2-7 days. Exact time will depend on the courier, and whilst we can't guarantee any exact time as it's out of our hands, experience tells us it's more likely to be 2-3 days in most cases.
THE SNAILIEST SNAIL MAIL: As a heads up, sending to a PO Box, parcel locker or similar, will often be slower as we can't use courier services and have to rely on Australia Post, who can be pretty slow at times.
EXPRESS POST: If you need your chocolate urgently, because sometimes that's a thing in life, please select Express Post at checkout, or get in touch to check how we can help.
HOT WEATHER POLICY: Please note, if the temperature is soaring we may withhold sending your chocolate for a day or two to ensure it doesn't arrive a melted mess. We'll keep you posted if that's a case, but please refer to our hot weather policy, or get in touch with any questions.
FREE SHIPPING! We're like you and we love free shipping - although full transparency, we deal in good chocolate as a passion more than profit (yep, the margins are pretty low) and as much as we'd love to offer free shipping on every order it's just not possible. But we love people who love good chocolate, so keep an eye out onsite for our free shipping rates, and gift boxes that include free shipping. Happy days!
