The Story of the Bar

The character of Bar 8 is defined by a nuanced salty-sweet profile in the fresh fruits we choose to work with. It makes for a chocolate of vibrant contrasts, where the sharp, bright notes of preserved, candied fruit are tempered by a clean, rounded acidity — offering a depth other preserving methods cannot replicate.

The basic process is driven by natural Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB), and is conducted entirely in-house within our Chocolate Lab. Each new seasonal fruit demands its own set of individually focused requirements.

The technical foundation of Bar 8 is our Lacto-Fruit-Ferment method. A controlled fermentation of the fresh fruit is monitored until the desired acidity and aroma are achieved. Once perfected, the fruit is candied — and in certain batches, steeped for an extended time in a complementary British spirit — where the alcohol further defines the character.
