Quite bitter, with few side flavors. Nuttiness (walnut?) is the most dominant note. The aftertaste fades rapidly, despite the bitterness. 6.6
I like most Pralus bars, but this one did not get there for me. The "best by" date for this bar is August 2013, so it is well within that. However, the bar seemed to have some surface issues. The photo below shows the surface of the bar before I tasted it. The left arrow above the Pralus logo shows an area that should be smooth, but is instead rough and uneven. The right arrow shows an area on the right side of the bar that looks like it has been marred and roughened before packaging in the foil that covered it. I doubt that the bar's taste is related to this unexpected condition of the bar, but it could be, so take that into account.

Delish Mid Knight Premium German Chocolate 70% cacao
Very nice bar for a very nice price. Not exotic, but well made and flavorful. Some mild citrus notes, a little more hazelnut. Very low bitterness, though not much aftertaste. 8.1
This bar is distributed by Walgreen's with a "Made in Germany" note on the box. I'll add some additional label marketing in the Comments part of this post as I usually do.

Very rich cocoa flavors, some faint nutmeg as well. Not too bitter, but a long aftertaste. 6.9
This is the first Polish chocolate bar that I have tasted. Their website is below, but be prepared to run it through a translator!
