Patience is the word for this chocolate: it unfolds slowly on the palate and lingers long. The Dominican Republic 75% Dark Chocolate Bar from François Pralus is crafted by the Pralus house, founded in Roanne in 1948, from organic Dominican Trinitario cacao, the variety that gives it its strong, complex character. Spicy, fruity, and woody, it closes on a long, lingering finish. Grate it over a vanilla panna cotta, or pair a square with a full-bodied red wine.

At François Pralus, traditional French craftsmanship and a taste for innovation go hand in hand, in pursuit of authentic flavor.
