The heat arrives late, then lingers. Comptoir du Cacao, the French chocolate house, infuses a pure cocoa butter dark chocolate containing 72% cocoa with Piment d’Espelette, the PDO chili pepper of the Basque Country, for this Pepper Dark Chocolate Bar. Its gentle, fruity heat builds slowly and lingers elegantly on the palate, in counterpoint to the depth of the chocolate. For a daring pairing, serve it alongside a Basque sheep’s milk cheese, or with fresh mango.
