At the heart, a creamy praline. Around it, a 74% grand cru dark chocolate couverture, single origin Madagascar, organic. And then the loomi, that sun-dried lime the desert caravans knew by the name noor. Light. The smoky bitterness of the black lime here fragments the roundness of the praline.

— The experience —

NOOR is a recipe for the end of a meal, or for after dinner by the fire. The smoky bitterness of loomi awakens the back of the palate, the dried citrus converses with brown spirits. Reserved for tasters unafraid of powerful structures.

— Our story —

Noor evokes light, contrast and contemporary elegance. A recipe brought back from a journey to Muscat — the way one brings back a memory, the certainty of a taste that did not yet exist. The loomi (sun-dried lime) of the Persian basin meets Tonda Gentile praline. An encounter between intensity, finesse and sensory emotion.
