Look
The chocolate is very dark brown with hints of black. The edges have white and light brown shimmer.
Sound
The chocolate breaks with a clear snap sound.
Smell
The smells is mainly of vanilla, sugar, some cocoa, and a few coffee aromas.
Mouthfeel
The chocolate melts slowly into a very fine liquid and remains very smooth.
Taste
Once it has started to melt, the chocolate has an initial flavour of sweetness. Cocoa and nutty wood flavours unfold before they are replaced by coffee and sugar flavours. The sweetness is very central in the mouth on the tongue and the coffee unfolds slightly behind that. However, only little flavour is perceivable elsewhere.
Aftertaste
The aftertaste is mainly of coffee and sugar. There are only hints of a mild cocoa towards the rear of the mouth.
Summary
This is very smooth dark chocolate. Initially it feels very solid but melts evenly and slowly into a very fine liquid. It has a mild sweetness and coffee flavours.
Verdict
This chocolate is very well conched, melts slowly on the tongue and maintains an even surface. Its main flavours are sugar and coffee. The cocoa flavours are present but are overpowered by the sweetness and the coffee flavours. 3 Stars.
