A true homage to Jamaican Cuisine, PURE Chocolate Jamaica created this bar to celebrate the vibrant flavours of the Caribbean. The 70% dark chocolate with Jerk Seasoning takes you on a journey starting with dark chocolate notes, followed by the authentic spices and herbs that embody Jamaica's famous spice blend. Finishing the journey with a hint of Scotch Bonnet pepper, this bar is the ultimate companion to a glass of red wine and a charcuterie selection shared with friends.
