Mocha. A cafe classic. Cacao & coffee have so much in common. From their growing regions to processing steps, these distant genetic relatives are an obvious pairing. This chocolate is a bit of an inverse where the chocolate takes the stage with the complement of coffee. With Onyx's amazing Monarch Espresso involved, this combination is heavenly as you'd expect.
I’ve been chopping it up for my morning coffee routine, and the way the deep espresso roast melts into the cacao is seriously satisfying. The bar breaks with a clean snap, too, and that mocha flavor lingers just long enough after each bite.
The mocha note is spot on—it’s like a coffee break in chocolate form, and the cacao-coffee pairing feels genuinely intentional rather than gimmicky. I’ve been sneaking a square with my morning espresso, and the two really do complement each other.
I grabbed this to pair with my afternoon espresso and ended up eating the whole bar in one sitting. The mocha note comes through clearly without one flavor overpowering the other.
