David Bacco Chocolatier Elvesia Dominican Republic 74% cocoa

Nicely made bar with an interesting mold pattern. Low bitterness and smooth aftertaste. Fruity flavor baseline, cherry and orange. Wonderful. 9.2

The Grenada Chocolate Company 82% cocoa.

Quite bitter from start to finish. Nice earthy flavor base, with some cherry notes. While the aftertaste is bitter, it tails off nicely. 7.6

Slitti GranCacao 73% cacao


I tasted this bar with my niece Dianna and her husband, Will.  Will liked it quite a lot, while Dianna had a pretty strong negative reaction.  Will rated it 7 or 8 on a 10 scale, Dianna rated it 1 or 2.

I'm in between. The bar is rich in cocoa flavor, very strong, bitter flavor.  The flavor palette ranges to the earthy side.  Not my favorite mix.  6.6
