Great burst of flavor on initial taste. The taste is reminiscent of walnut and sage. The aftertaste is fairly strong and bitter, but the experience is not diminished. Very interesting and complex bar. 8.5
The flavor burst is reduced with this bar. There is a more constant flavor level, from initial taste through after taste. The sage is dialed up, the walnut dialed down. The aftertaste is less bitter and more complementary. 8.9
Bar 209's label indicated it was "created" on September 6, 2010, and Bar 210 was created on September 17, 2010. Both bars have a "Best By" date of September 2012. So I tasted these bars while they were still in "best" condition, but I doubt that they would be any less good in October. I wonder how this date was chosen? If a bar is kept in excellent preservation conditions, what would be the expected length that the bar can remain in "same as new" taste condition?
