Godiva Extra Dark Santo Domingo 85% Cacao

This bar confronts you with a chalky texture on first taste. Not heavily bitter, but certainly bitter enough. Beyond these reactions, this chocolate does not have other dimensions present. Complex? Spicy? Berry? I'm not getting it. 5

From the label:
"The darkest chocolate in the range made with 85% cacao from the Caribbean island of Santo Domingo. Robust, dark chocolate with hints of spicy, berry top notes, in the smoothest of textures, delivers a densely complex dark chocolate."

Godiva is terrible. There's nothing special about their chocolates. It has a premium reputation but is really a mainstream product.
