Dandelion Indonesia Ransiki 70% cacao

I would not describe this bar as gentle and sweet. It has a spice edge, somewhat peppery with a touch of nutmeg. The aftertaste is lengthy, ringing with the spice.  Well made, but not a profile I like. 6.5

Stonegrindz Peru Ucayali River 70% cacao

I have come to know that cacao from Peru is delicious and flavorful, and this bar supports that impression. The flavors are more buttery than fruity, with a light caramel taste. On the fruit side a touch of fig can be noticed. The aftertaste is clean and brief. 9.5

Monsoon Peru Ucayali 7

There is a buttery texture introducing this bar, followed by a mossy taste. A hint of vanilla rounds out the flavors. Aftertaste is short and mild. 8.8

Very bright fruity flavors are experienced on the first tasting of this bar. Apricot and citrus flavors are noted. The bitterness is mild and the aftertaste is gentle. This is a superb bar of chocolate! 9.7

Pump Street Madagascar Sambirano 72% cacao

This is a typical Madagascar origin chocolate, rich with flavors and sweet. Bright cherry notes are prominent, with balsamic and plum flavors alongside. The aftertaste is gentle and pleasant. 9.2
