Montezuma's Very Dark 73% cocoa

Clean cocoa flavor, with some earthiness. Somewhat bitter, but this fades in the aftertaste. 7.4

This is the last bar from my London/Ireland collection. The label on the back mentions that the cocoa beans come from The Dominican Republic, though this bar is not labeled as a single-origin bar.

From the label:
"This is no ordinary chocolate. The quality of the organic beans from our friends in the Dominican Republic don't just shine through it, they almost burn a hole in the carton! You get a full and balanced flavour without any overpowering bitterness. Don't just chocolate by cocoa content, judge it by flavour and consider the beand, climate, soil, weather and about another zillion things more important than the number.
