Hachez Cocoa D'Arriba 77% cacao

This bar is, not surprisingly, quite bitter with a rich cocoa flavor. This contributes to the long tail of the aftertaste. Faint fruit notes underlie the bitterness -- tangerine comes to mind. 7.7

My last review of a Hachez bar was over ten years ago: Hachez 88% Cocoa Premier Cru Superior Dark Chocolate. It was a darker bar at 88%, but my terse review was pretty harsh. This bar is a fine chocolate bar, and likely the Hachez 88% was too.

This 77% bar was brought home by my colleague Tyler, who visited Europe recently. Thanks, Tyler!
