70% Dark Espresso by Fjåk Chocolate is a premium dark chocolate crafted with 70% cacao content. Fjåk Chocolate is known for its commitment to quality and sustainability, sourcing cacao beans from organic and fair-trade origins. The 70% Dark Espresso bar combines the rich, robust flavor of dark chocolate with the intense, aromatic notes of espresso, providing a balanced and sophisticated taste experience.
Fjåk Chocolate, based in Norway, is renowned as the country’s first bean-to-bar chocolate maker. Founded by Agurtxane Concellon and Siv Hereid in 2015, the company began by experimenting with craft chocolate in a modest kitchen before officially launching in 2017.
Fjåk infuses its chocolate with local Nordic ingredients, such as sour cherries, reindeer lichen, and lingonberries, showcasing Norway's natural bounty. This approach is central to Fjåk’s identity, offering a distinctive Norwegian spin on traditional chocolate.
