Maker

Qantu

Qantu is a chocolate maker based in Montreal. Qantu was started by Elfi and Maxime in 2016. This pair fell in love with bean to bar chocolate after researching cocoa after their first plantation visit in 2014. The immense passion and pride of the cocoa producers inspired them to create bean to bar chocolate. Qantu focuses on Peruvian cacao for the moment, which is where Maxime and Elfi met over a decade ago in Elfi’s home country. The name “ Qantu” (pronounced “Kantu”) derives from the name of the national flower of Peru and Bolivia. The word comes from the native language of the Peruvian Andes, Quechua, it represents a symbol of unity and hospitality.

Cacao region

Ayacucho

Ayacucho lies in Peru's south-central Andes, where steep valleys descend toward the Apurímac and Ene rivers. The lower elevations of the VRAEM area sit within Ayacucho and produce a growing share of Peruvian cacao, much of it Criollo-influenced and grown by smallholder farmers.

Flavor profile: you can sense the mouthwatering texture by receiving an electrical message directly to the brain of maple, sacher-torte cake with apricot preserves, salted caramel pudding, exceptional "caramelle al malto di riso" flavor, caramelized toasted nuts, light saltiness combined with sea breeze vibes. Hints of fragrant and slightly bitter crystallized lilac note in the end on the tip of the tongue with a distinctive citrusy taste and floral-pungent overtones. Maple-chocolate finish showing a more biting savory dry back taste. This is such an eye-opening tasting experience that allows us to understand the plight of the craft chocolate movement and the varied responses that different artisan makers have towards the same market demands; and in all of these initiatives, this is absolutely the best salt-inclusion dark chocolate bar I have ever tried and more. As a maple sugar enthusiast, I sampled several options but just Qantu developed the perfect synergy of flavors between cacao origin, sugar and salt that provides an unparalleled enjoyment for the palate. I would have given a Gold Award as a certified chocolate judge without any doubt. Fair warning, the lightweight mouthfeel weakens the self-control and the mind might open up at any moment to swallow every bit of it with relish. Enjoy!

Okay, short shelf life

This was okay. You get notes of maple, but it doesn't have the sweetness of maple syrup; just the slight whiff of it, with some saltiness. It seems a bit off balance and about to lean savory. I'm a fan of maple though, so I personally thought this was better than the Morropon and the Chaska. This was the quickest to go "bad" in the fridge, turning white-ish on the surface (bloom) within a day. Texture changed along with the surface change as well.

A Must For Maple Lovers

Perfect balance of smooth semi-dark chocolate and maple. Excited to try more from Qantu in the future!

LOVE this bar!

Wow! I actually found the description on the package very accurate: nose of caramel and brown sugar, mouth of bright banana and warm cinnamon, and finish of toasted pecan. Truly wonderful experience. The sweetness is perfectly paired with the nuttiness and hint of salt. I could eat this every day!
