South Asian chai spices meet Nicaraguan cacao. This is the bar our founder Muffadal grew up dreaming about, and it's the one our customers reach for most.

62% dark milk chocolate blended with turmeric, ginger, cardamom, black pepper, and cinnamon. The spices are the ones his family uses in their chai. The cacao is from the farms we work with across Nicaragua. Two traditions, one bar.

Slow-fermented and stone-ground in Nicaragua, then tempered and finished in our Wicker Park shop.

Tasting notes: creamy dark milk chocolate, warming chai spice, earthy turmeric.

60g bar. Contains dairy. Store below 70°F.

Storage
  • Store in a cool, dark place (40°F-68°F) - your pantry is perfect! Keep away from heat, sunlight, and strong odors.
  • See a whitish sheen on your chocolate? Don't worry! This is called 'bloom' - it happens when temperature changes cause the cocoa butter to naturally separate. While it might not look as pretty, bloomed chocolate is still delicious and perfect for melting into coffee, baking, or making hot chocolate.
  • No freezing needed - chocolate is happiest at room temperature!

    Where it comes from

    Nicaraguan cacao with the chai spices our founder's family uses.

    Fermented and dried in Tipitapa through Ingemann, our partner cacao company, which we part-own and direct. Made into chocolate at our own factory in San Juan del Sur. Finished in Wicker Park.

    The cacao has earned 345+ international awards.

    Questions

    When will my order ship?

    We process orders in 3 to 5 business days, and a little longer in busy holiday weeks. You get a tracking email when it leaves. We ship across the United States and Canada.

    Will the chocolate melt on the way?

    Above 75°F we pack chocolate with insulation and cold packs, and we ship it Monday to Wednesday so it isn't in transit over a weekend. From May to September, orders placed on a Thursday or Friday may wait until Monday. Please have someone there to receive it, or ship it where it can come indoors: we can't refund chocolate that melted because a delivery was missed or delayed. For gift sets purchased directly from Oro, the 30-day make-it-right promise in our return and refund policy takes precedence over that exclusion.

    How should I store it?

    Somewhere cool, dry and dark, away from heat, sunlight and strong smells. Each product's own storage note is in the list above.

    Can I pick it up in Chicago?

    Yes. Choose in-store pickup at checkout and we'll tell you when it's ready at 1553 N Milwaukee Ave, Wicker Park.

    What if it arrives damaged?

    If your order arrives damaged, write to community@orochocolate.com with your order number and photos of the product and packaging. Please report arrival damage within 48 hours so we can help quickly. For gift sets purchased directly from Oro, our make-it-right promise lasts 30 days from delivery; the 48-hour request does not shorten that promise. We'll review the issue and offer a replacement or refund as appropriate. No food needs to be mailed back.
