Valrhona – Chuao 2002 – review – Hans-Peter Rot

Without seeing the light of day for five years, the bar is very pretty, delivering much more visual awe than what we see from Valrhona today. (Not even a trace of bloom is present.) Itâ€™s encouraging to see, then, a dark ...

Askinosie – San Jose Del Tambo – review – Hans-Peter Rot

Right from the get-go, Askinosie chooses to convey a certain theme with their packaging, one that is supposed to have grassroots appeal but looks more like a police criminal file, complete with paper bag material, typewriter fo...

Askinosie – Soconusco – review – Hans-Peter Rot

Once the epicenter of quality in cacao, but now a place shrouded in history, Askinosie revives Soconusco and produces a superb looking bar. Temper and mold are as mentioned excellent all over, with only a single bubble on the b...

Patric Chocolate – Madagascar Sambirano Valley – review – Hans-Peter Rot

Patric makes it very clear that image is important. The bar itself is just as shiny and gorgeous as any other artisan producer such as Cluizel or Valrhona, with exception for some minor unevenness in the mold. Aroma, meanwhile,...

República del Cacao – Manabi Province – review – Hans-Peter Rot

About Continuum

This is a custom sidebar. Continuum gives you lots of custom sidebar possibilities. You can use the Continuum Theme Options page to specify which pages have a unique sidebar. Or, you can use the same sidebar for all of your pages using the Sidebar Default widget panel. If you do specify that you want a unique sidebar for an area of your site, such as the Search page, you can use the corresponding built-in Sidebar Search widget panel.

In fact, Continuum comes standard with 19 unique sidebars. Wow, we're starting to sound like a car commercial, so we'll add that you don't have to use all of them if you don't want. Continuum harnesses the power of absolute customization while at the same time having a quality of meekness: you can forget about all the settings and get yourself up and running in no time flat.
