Ocumare Milk Back in Stock

843FF81A-2073-4EA0-A888-948071F33953.jpgWe’re making chocolate as fast as we can to replenish all our stocks. More people purchased Amano Chocolate over Christmas and Valentine’s than we’d expected.

As some of you may have noticed we were temporarily out of stock on our Ocumare Milk due to overwhelming demand over Valentine’s. We’re happy to announce that you can once again purchase our award winning Ocumare Milk Chocolate.

I should also note that due to problems with the recent harvests in Bali we will soon be discontinuing our award winning Jembrana 70% Dark Chocolate Bar and our Jembrana Milk Chocolate Bar.

The Jembrana milk in particular was one of my favorite bars. I still remember the first time we unloaded it from the conche and how amazing it tasted for a milk chocolate. It is still, in my opinion, the most complex milk chocolate I’ve ever tasted. The imported milk powder we use along with the Jembrana beans led to notes of licorice in this milk chocolate.

The Jembrana 70% dark chocolate was my favorite chocolate to cook with. So this is quite sad in particular for me. (We’re already out of stock with our bulk supplies of Jembrana — it was a popular chocolate with many restaurants)

Because we are so tied to the harvest of crops from small plantations we have to expect this. Just like wine from a particular vineyard might be spectacular one year but mediocre other years the beans of particular plantations also vary with each harvest. As we only produce the finest chocolate we are extremely careful which crop harvests to use when making our award winning chocolate.

We still have supplies of both of our Jembrana bars left. But when those sell out there will be no more left. So if you love either our Jembrana dark or Jembrana milk chocolate I’d strongly advise ordering now before supplies are gone. (I know some customers already ordering quite a few bars to hoard over the months ahead)

You can purchase our Jembrana Milk Chocolate here and our Jembrana 70% Dark Chocolate here.
