A bar to snap in the palm of the hand, into two clean squares. The Trinitario cocoa from Le Lorrain — northern Martinique — yields a lively, upright material that comes fully into its own with an aged agricole rum. To be served after a Creole meal or simply with a coffee. Store at 18 °C, take out 20 minutes before tasting.

Martinique calls for the raw material of the sugar canes. Agricole rum in direct pairing, or a strong black coffee to support the woody note.
