Equal Exchange Organic Orange Dark Chocolate 65% Cacao

I don't normally taste flavored chocolates, but I bought this bar accidentally in an impulse purchase at the checkout stand. I shared it with colleagues in an open tasting.

Of course the orange flavor dominates. There is some slight bitterness, but the taste is mostly pleasant. 6

Open tasting comments:
Matthew: Intense orange with hint of sweetness -- satisfying. 6
Nouha: I don't like dark chocolate but the flavor of orange gave it a sweet beginning and the ending was less bitter than usual. 9
Jeanine: Nice orange flavor, doesn't overwhelm the chocolate. Chalky aftertaste. 6
David: Tasty. Nice sweet orange flavors.
Amy: I liked it. Orangy. 7
Varun: Not very orangy. Edible. 5
