This is the chocolate Variant from the newer 7-Pot boldog varieties. We believe the name comes from the bone like shape the pods have and it heat. Pods are Rough around the Edges with a very nice aroma and great chocolates pods flavour. Plants grow very good almost fast with very good yields under good conditions. Pods start out green and ripen to a dark chocolate when fully ripe and some pods have a lite chocolates stripe. Pods are medium to thick walled with a slight oil. Pods can still be made into powder they just need to be sliced thin when drying them. The oil does not seem to cause clumping
