“Only Good Cacao makes Good Bean-to-Bar Chocolate.”
Aruntam – Sensory Chocolate is a Craft Chocolate Bean to Bar Made in Italy: an original product capable of arousing emotions in those who taste it. A registered trademark of Joyflor Srl, a company led by Pia Rivera, Aruntam – Sensory Chocolate was born from a passionate and rigorous vision of quality chocolate.
The project took shape in 2012, following a trip by Pia to Ecuador, and developed over years of study, training and field research. The goal is clear: to enhance cocoa in all its sensory nuances, starting with the selection of the finest raw materials.
In 2017, the first chocolate line was presented: I Volti del Mondo (The Faces of the World), marking the official beginning of Aruntam – Sensory Chocolate in the world of bean-to-bar chocolate.
The name Aruntam evokes the Spirit of Courage of an indomitable tribe from Ecuador. Pia chose this word to express the strength and determination with which she wanted to create something authentic and original. Aruntam – Sensory Chocolate is her idea of high-quality bean-to-bar chocolate.
Every stage of the process – from the selection of cocoa beans and raw materials to processing – is carried out with artisan care in the certified organic laboratory in San Giuliano Milanese, where bars with a unique sensory profile are created.
The seeds used follow the “Direct & EcoTrade” philosophy: an ethical choice that favours direct contact with producers in the countries of origin, in order to contribute to the development of agricultural communities. Where direct contact is not possible, the channels used by the growers themselves to export their seeds to Europe are chosen.
Great attention is paid to the organoleptic quality of the cocoa beans: only the finest seeds are processed according to minimally processed methods, in order to preserve their aromatic characteristics. The bars in the Unroasted and Roasted ranges offer complex and refined sensory profiles.
Its commitment to the environment has led Aruntam – Sensory Chocolate to obtain Organic Certification, and its collections are also appreciated by those who follow specific diets, such as vegan.
Although still in its early days, the project has already received significant international recognition, thanks to a philosophy focused on the balance between flavour and purity.
We invite you to taste the products of Aruntam – Sensory Chocolate: for an authentic sensory experience.
Enjoy some delicious bean-to-bar chocolate, everyone!
