The Venchi Cigar Truffle Nougatine 100g draws on a confectionary tradition established in Turin in 1878. Hand-wrapped to resemble a traditional cigar, this chocolate reveals a highly textured interior. The core consists of a dense cocoa paste folded with chopped, caramelized Piedmont hazelnuts, providing a distinct crunch and the roasted aroma of regional nuts. This center is encased in a double layer of dark chocolate, balancing the sweetness of caramelized sugar with a pronounced, earthy bitterness. The scent offers clear notes of toasted hazelnut, vanilla, and intense cocoa. Formulated without gluten, this confection reflects Silviano Venchi's original approach to ingredient pairing, delivering a straightforward, tactile tasting experience defined by the contrast between the smooth chocolate shell and the brittle nougatine center.
