The bar has a strong presence. "Puissant," for those without a dictionary handy, means "powerful; mighty; potent," so it is appropriately characterized. The tannic angle provides a bitter aftertaste, but it tails off quickly and is clean. A slight floral undertone is about the only side flavor I notice. 8.1

From the label:
"Abinao offers a subtle balance of several sensory dimensions, dominated by an intense bitterness and backed up by powerful tannins; the result of it's high percentage of cocoa and a skillful melange of of African beans."
