A chocolate liqueur from VE DE DI of Hanoi, Vietnam — made with cacao nibs from single-origin chocolate maker Marou Faiseurs de Chocolat. Cacao beans are directly sourced from farmers in six regions of Vietnam, fermented for five days, sun-dried for ten, and slowly roasted to produce rich nibs with a high percentage of cacao butter — then macerated in VE DE DI's rice spirit and sweetened with local sugar. A crème de cacao unlike any other you've tasted.
Tasting Notes:
Nose: Toasted cocoa nib with savory depth and a hint of peanut candy sweetness.
Palate: Dark chocolate and toffee underscored by honeycomb, toasted sesame, and chocolate fudge.
Finish: Subtle, piquant hint of Mexican chili powder.
ABV: 29% (58 Proof) • Marou single-origin Vietnamese cacao nibs • Rice spirit base • 700ML
