Vigdis Rosenkilde 100% Piura Blanco Dark Chocolate

The Vigdis Rosenkilde 100% Piura Blanco is an extraordinary exploration of pure cacao. Crafted with zero added sugar, this bar features the highly prized Piura Blanco bean, a naturally occurring “albino” or white cacao found in the Piura region of northern Peru. Because these unique white beans lack the tannins found in standard purple cacao, they produce a remarkably smooth, mild chocolate that completely defies the usual expectations of a 100% dark bar.

Bright, Nutty, and Zero Bitterness

Creating an enjoyable 100% cacao bar is a notoriously difficult feat, but the Piura Blanco bean shines without the need for any sweetening. Thanks to the bean’s rare genetics and Vigdis Rosenkilde’s meticulous roasting and conching process, the chocolate yields a beautifully complex flavor profile. With virtually no bitterness or astringency, you will experience bright, natural tasting notes of blackberry, crisp citrus, and roasted nuts, rounding out with a delicate, floral finish.

Ethically Made at Origin

Like all of Vigdis Rosenkilde’s creations, this bar is crafted entirely in Peru rather than shipping raw beans back to Norway. By working directly with farmers in the Piura region and producing the chocolate locally, Vigdis ensures that more economic value remains in the country of origin. This transparent, direct-trade approach guarantees exceptional freshness, supports local communities, and creates a more sustainable supply chain.
