The taste is clean and somewhat sweet. The flavor starts with a fruit profile with some plum and berry. The bitterness is moderate to low, resulting in a short aftertaste. 9.1
I have previously tasted Dandelion Tanzania Kokoa Kamili 70% cacao which was the 2014 harvest from that plantation. I rated it lower than this bar, which is quite good. Reaching back even further in 2012 I reviewed Dandelion Tanzania 70% cocoa for which the plantation origin was not identified.
That review had a comment that the label said, "Recently, we discovered a few extra kilos of beans and our friend Adam of Fog City News asked us to make a limited run." At the end of 2021 Adam closed Fog City News, leaving one less option for purchasing craft chocolate. But with its growth as a company, Dandelion no longer needs encouragement to make Tanzanian chocolate.
From the label:
