Packaging

Look
The chocolate is middle brown with some red. The surface is a bit rough with very thin lines and slightly shiny from oil.
Sound
The chocolate breaks with clear sound but it is thuddy.
Smell
The aroma is mainly milk and something that reminds of light oriental spices like cinnamon and cardamom.
Mouthfeel
The chocolate is soft and smooth. It dissolves quickly into a very fine liquid.
Taste
The chocolate initially tastes of a very light sweetness, cinnamon, grass and some milky notes. The flavour quickly becomes richer. It unfolds into a warm, lightly spicy flavour that combines hints of cinnamon, cardamom, and a hint of little bitterness from dried flowers and some spice that almost tickles at the rear of the mouth.
Aftertaste
The aftertaste is dominated by a milky sweetness with hints of the complex spiciness.
Summary
This is a warming, complex milk chocolate with notes of cinnamon and cardamom.
Verdict
This milk chocolate is very well made. It is soft, smooth and dissolves nicely in the mouth. It has nicely warming spicy flavour. I have no clue whether the oil introduces the warming flavours but it is an extraordinary chocolate. 5 Stars.
