Ranked in the Top 100 Chocolates in the World.

Origin & Craftsmanship

This bar is part of Depetris Riccardo / Depetris…i Ciculaté's Cioccolato del Monviso line, made in Revello, Piedmont at the foot of Mount Monviso — a UNESCO World Heritage site and the defining landmark of the Po Valley. The Genepy bar is built around a multi-stage infusion process: alpine Genepy flowers, grown in the Valle Po directly below the mountain, are used to aromatise the cacao through natural infusion and flavouring techniques. Even the grinding is tied to the mountain — Depetris has modified his production machinery to use Monviso stone as the milling surface, making the terroir connection between cacao and landscape a literal one.

Flavor Profile

Genepy is an aromatic alpine herb with a long tradition in Piedmontese and Valdostan liqueur-making — bitter, herbal, and distinctly high-altitude in character. Here it works in tension with the chocolate base: expect the warmth and depth of dark cacao underpinned by cool, herbaceous, slightly floral notes. The result reads as both grounded and elevated — a bar that tastes unmistakably of where it was made.

Award & Recognition

The Monviso Genepy earned a Special Prize for Infusion in Genepy Liqueur at the 2025 International Chocolate Awards (European Bean-to-Bar Competition), recognising both the technical precision of the infusion and the integrity of the locally sourced ingredient.

Tasting & Pairing Guide

Serve slightly below room temperature to keep the herbal notes crisp. The Genepy character pairs naturally with a small glass of aged Barolo or Nebbiolo — both share the same alpine-Piedmontese DNA. For a non-alcoholic match, a pine needle or mountain herb tea echoes the elevation without competing. For a food pairing, aged Toma Piemontese cheese or dark rye crackers with honey bridge the bitter and the sweet without overwhelming the herb.

Summary

The Monviso Genepy is a bar about place — specifically, the alpine landscape that rises above the Po Valley and defines the Piedmontese identity. With locally grown Genepy flowers infused directly into the cacao and Monviso stone used in the grinding process, it is as close as chocolate gets to a single-terroir expression. Award-recognised, technically demanding, and unlike anything outside the shadow of that mountain.

Actually feels cool at night
Color: Light Gray, Size: Standard
I’ve been using these for several days now and I did notice a difference. I tend to get hot while sleeping, so I was curious if they would actually help, and they do feel cool when you lay on them. I also like that they’re soft and comfortable, not that weird texture some “cooling” products have. So far, I’ve been really happy with them.

Finally sleeping through the night without waking up drenched
I was dealing with night sweats almost every night. Waking up overheated, flipping my pillow over constantly, just uncomfortable and restless. It was starting to mess with my sleep in a real way. Since switching to this cooling pillowcase (and pairing it with a cooling blanket), it’s been a completely different experience. I’m actually staying cool through the night and not waking up soaked or irritated. The fabric feels cool to the touch right away and doesn’t trap heat like a regular pillowcase. It’s smooth, comfortable, and still feels good after washing. Not stiff or weird like some “cooling” materials can be. Is it magic? No. But does it noticeably reduce overheating and help you sleep better? Absolutely. If you run hot at night or deal with night sweats, this is one of those small upgrades that makes a big difference. I wish I had bought it sooner.

so far so good
I was surprised at this pair of pillow cases only because the material seemed impossible to be cooling - it's that weird polyester blend. So far I have not awoken feeling sweaty around my face and scalp. I don't recall what I originally paid but I think it is great value for money! If you are sensitive to out of the box smell, I washed mine first and it didn't impede on the efficacy of the cooling!

It’s like sleeping on a beach in San Vito lo Capo
Italian voice: I’m a big meaty fella so I put off a lot of heat ya hear. These pillow cases have changed my life. One moment they’re hot and the next you flip them and you’re blasted with a blast of ice cool what it feels like to chew 5 gum feeling capeesh. I would reccomend these pillow cases to even my grandma. If ya wanta get a rest so good that it feels like ya been sleeping with the fishes get these pillow cases, they’re the real deal. Then stop at Pauline’s joint and grab a slice of pizza say Vinnie sent ya. Anyways I gotta go my wife’s cooking up a mean lasgna and we’re gonna watch the dodgers. Let me know how these treat ya I guarantee they will change your life. Vinnie out

Soft "cooling" case.
Yes it is very cool when you lay on it. It doesn't stay cold though. Within a minute or 2 to whatever your temp is.
