Bittersweet Ghana 72% Cacao

There's a lot going on with this bar.  Cherry notes are most prominent, but some raisin and nutty aspects present themselves.  Fairly low bitterness, with a gentle aftertaste. The bar dissolves in the mouth in a way that seems different, becoming soft quickly, but then slowly disintegrating.

This a well made bar -- with a crisp snap, and a rich cocoa bouquet.  The package is clearly hand-wrapped, and done with care.  The mold used for the bar is novel, with flowers embossed and an interesting two-level surface.  8.3

This bar was a gift from my friend Kyle, who attended a tasting where this bar was found.  Bittersweet Cafe has stores in the east bay, but apparently also has one here in the city.  I will have to try to find it!
