Origin & Craftsmanship
This spirited bar is a collaboration between Kasama Chocolate in Vancouver and Tanduay Rum, one of the Philippines’ most iconic spirits. Crafted with high-quality cacao and infused with the warm, aged character of Tanduay rum, this bar reflects both bean-to-bar chocolate craftsmanship and a nod to Filipino flavor heritage. The result is bold, balanced chocolate with an adult-oriented twist.

Flavor Profile
At 75% cacao, this chocolate delivers deep, robust cocoa richness with layered complexity. The rum influence adds warm vanilla and molasses notes, subtle oak and spice, and a gentle sweet warmth that lingers behind the dark chocolate’s intensity. The interplay between the rich cocoa and rum character creates a refined yet adventurous profile.

Tasting & Pairing Guide

Allow a piece to melt slowly so the deep cocoa foundation unfolds first, followed by warming rum-like aromatics and spice.
Pair this bar with a small pour of Tanduay Rum itself to mirror its spirit infusion, or enjoy it with a rich Tawny Port or aged Madeira to complement the warm vanilla and oak tones. For a non-alcoholic option, a spiced chai tea or roasted coffee brings out the rum’s molasses and spice character. Serve with toasted pecans or dark cherries to enhance both texture and layered flavor.

Summary

The Tanduay Rum 75% bar from Kasama is a bold and expressive fusion of premium dark chocolate and aged rum character. With deep cocoa richness, warm spice and vanilla highlights, and a refined finish, it’s a standout for chocolate lovers who appreciate complexity, nuance, and a spirited touch.

Our chocolate makers proudly refrain from using any artificial stabilizers or preservatives in their products, making their creations more temperature-sensitive compared to other premium chocolates.

To ensure the optimal taste experience, it's advisable to store our chocolates in a cool, dry place where the temperature hovers between 16°C and 18°C. Please refrain from refrigerating our chocolates, as this may cause sugar crystallization due to increased humidity, altering their texture and flavor.

On the contrary, if stored in excessively high temperatures, cocoa butter may separate and form a white film on the chocolate's surface. This loss of cocoa butter can lead to the chocolate drying out and, consequently, a potential alteration in flavor. Your mindful storage practices will help preserve the integrity of our delectable chocolates.
