Deep, bold, and beautifully complex, the 75% Bourbon Dark Chocolate Bar by McGuire Chocolate Company is a bar for true dark chocolate lovers. Made bean-to-bar in New Brunswick, this small-batch creation features ethically sourced cacao infused with the subtle warmth of real bourbon — not in a loud, overpowering way, but as a gentle undertone that adds depth, aroma, and intrigue.
The high cacao content delivers an intense, full-bodied chocolate experience, rich in natural cocoa notes with hints of vanilla, oak, and spice — all elevated by a whisper of bourbon that lingers on the finish. There’s no harsh alcohol bite, just a smooth, slow-unfolding flavour that calls to mind the elegance of a post-dinner chocolate negro con licor in a tucked-away Spanish bar.
This bar is beautifully balanced: bold without bitterness, indulgent without excess. Whether paired with a glass of Rioja, sipped alongside a neat bourbon, or enjoyed all on its own, it offers a moment of true artisanal indulgence.
Ingredients: Organic cacao, organic cane sugar, bourbon.
No artificial flavours, no preservatives — just pure craft chocolate with a spirited twist.
From the producers
"This aromatic chocolate was made by soaking Kokoa Kamili cacao nibs in a Bulleit bourbon for 1 week. We then carefully dry the nibs before we begin grinding. We paired Kokoa Kamili nibs with Bulleit Bourbon because of their complimentary citrus notes. The Kokoa Kamili fermentary, located in the Kilimanjaro valley, purchases wet cacao beans from almost 3000 smallholder farmers, most of whom farm between 0.5-2 acres of cocoa. Prior to the founding of Kokoa Kamili the only cacao companies in the country were focused on buying large volumes of commodity cocoa for cheap, cheap, cheap. The result: Tanzania had one of the lowest GDP per capita rates in the world for rural cacao farmers."
