With its amazingly high cocoa content for a milk chocolate (46%), Bahibé is inspired by a couverture developed by Valrhona at the request of one its customers in San Francisco. Bahibé provides the perfect balance between the bitterness of pure Dominican cocoa and the sweetness of milk.

With its local partner, Valrhona has selected the Dominican Republic’s finest beans to create a rare chocolate variety. Thanks to its high cocoa content, BAHIBÉ adds intense cocoa notes to its gentle milky flavor, with nutty hues, fruity acidity and a slightly bitter edge.
