With fiery chili to ignite the union between sweet mangoes and nutty cacao nibs, this ménage à trois is just so scandalously delightful that there's no way it can be kept a secret. No wonder they say good things come in threes!

Maker

Theo and Philo

Theo  Philo is a chocolate maker based in the Philippines. Theo and Philo prides on using local ingredients. It all started from Philo’s love of baking, and desire to use chocolate. He would always scour for special and different types of chocolate. Growing up in the Philippines, he was surprised no one was making bean to bar chocolate, after he first encounter with single estate chocolate. Cacao is grown in the Philippines but it was mostly used to make hot chocolate and exported. That’s when the decided to experiment with local cacao and see what good can come about! Along with their single origin plain bars, they have a collection of flavored bars that are inspired by the local Filipino cuisine. Theo is short for Theobroma Cacao, and Philo is derived from the Greek word which means love. Their goal is to create masterpieces with each bite of their chocolate, which is carefully crafted to capture the bountiful heritage of the Philippines.

Cacao Region

Davao, Philippines

One of the smallest big cities in the Philippines, Davao City is affectionately known as both the cacao and durian capital of the country. In fact, often you'll see both fruit trees growing on the same plantations within city limits, yet due to large soil & cacao varietal differences, you'll find that the resulting chocolates taste nothing alike. The region is so widespread that there's even a citywide speed limit that makes a trip from one end to the other take nearly two hours without traffic!

Great combination of flavors. The dark chocolate is rich and delicious without any bitterness. The burn from the chili is not overpowering and hits just after swallowing.

A fun mix of texture and flavor

I really like Theo & Philo across the board, but this one is a really special with a pop of heat and sweet tart mango and crunchy nibs. There's a lot of texture in this bar, more than I anticipated, but I really enjoyed it.

Crescendo is not hot-hot, just flavorful peppery-ness

The chocolate and mango are sooooo good together, and then the crunch of the coco nibs, finishing with a little crescendo of pepper. Yumm!

Good but not great

I really wanted to like this bar, but overall I was a little disappointed. First off, it is a fairly small bar. To be fair, it is very flavorful so a little goes a long way, but still I would hope for a quantity that is more on par with other bars in the same price range. Taste wise, it is a good chocolate and I love the cacao nibs. The chili tastes like a generic powdered chili powder and the mango is a little too subtle for my liking. Still, this bar is way better than anything you can get from the grocery store.
