Dark Chocolate, like foreign films and black coffee, is something you only get really into as you get older. A petite décadence that you’ll only understand when your tastes mature, when you’ve fully explored your sensuality.
Akro's baptism into the darkness came about when they discovered Said London - the legendary Soho chocolatiers. Just walking in there off the cold, dark streets of W1 feels like a sensory reawakening, as you let their aromas into your airwaves, and the flavours onto your tongue. Said soon became a weekly, guilty pilgrimage spot for them, a place to train their senses.
When it came to creating bottling their addictions, it was one of the first places they thought about.
