Story:
At 95% cacao, this bar represents one of Amedei’s most technically ambitious bars.
Rather than rely on cane sugar, Amedei made a radical choice - to replace sugar entirely and use pure maple sugar, derived from Canadian maple sap.
The result is not simple sweetness, but a layered, aromatic softness that tempers intensity and allows the cacao itself to remain firmly in focus - even at such an high percentage.
Emerging from that is an exceptionally elegant chocolate: deep and assertive, yet polished and sweet, with notes of liquorice, spice, and wild citrus unfolding gradually rather than aggressively.
Definitely one for those who seek depth, nuance, and sophistication in their chocolate.

Fiamma Tip:
Break into small pieces and let it melt slowly on the palate. Notice how the maple sugar rounds the edges, revealing notes of liquorice, spice, and wild citrus rather than bitterness. Ideal after dinner with an aged rum, amaro, or simply on its own - or just when you want chocolate to feel serious.
