Chocolate review: Auro Tupi 70% Dark Chocolate

It's nice to have more chocolate at home thanks to Auro's online store. They don't deliver yet outside Metro Manila so I had to have our chocolates delivered to my office in Quezon City. They were quick to process my order and I got them in time for the wife's birthday last January. Among the chocolates I ordered were what they termed as Limited Edition, Reserve Collection chocolates. These came in 60g rather than the 100g bars we usually bought.

Tupi is from single estate cacao

Details on the chocolate at the back of the pack

Nutrition information - beside the facts box are other info like the ingredients, allergen information, and storage conditions. Auro's contact information are also there.

The information on the taste elements reminded me of wine tasting. The location of the cacao sources is also provided along with the crops grown together with the cacao.

We believe the chocolate is excellent and certainly worth the 225 PHP (about 4.70 USD). It is supposed to be a limited edition so we don't know if they will make it a permanent product (for now). But its good to know that Auro has many to choose from and enjoy for those of us who love chocolates while at the same time would like Philippine chocolates to come out and compete with the best of them at the world stage.
