Chocolate Tree Belize Maya Mountain 75% cacao

There is a rich chocolate taste, buttressed by flavor threads of caramel and toffee. The aftertaste is clean and smooth. 

Similar to the Chocolate Tree Columbia Arhuaco 70% cacao bar reviewed earlier, this bar has a unique mold.

Orinoco Venezuela 74% cacao

There is a slightly grainy texture to this bar, which contributes to the earthy taste. The sweetener is listed as maple sugar, but there is not a strong maple flavor present, though there is perhaps a hint of it. The aftertaste is fairly sweet and continues the grainy texture. 7.4

The mold for this bar is a representation of a cacao bean. This makes is slightly difficult to break the bar into pieces for consumption, but it is a nice design choice.
